| Quick guys, c'mon | 09-SEP-09 |
|
| BJP President Rajnath Singh has been looking for a Type VIII (the highest category) bungalow in the capital for some time, and finally located one on Kushak Road, to be vacated by party colleague Satyanarayan Jatiya, a former minister in the Vajpayee Government. Jatiya lost the parliamentary election and was hoping to be sent to the Rajya Sabha, but when it became clear he wasn’t getting a seat, he vacated the house. The problem is, the CPWD says it will take at least a couple of months to carry out essential repairs, paint jobs and so on. By which time, if Singh is no longer party president, he may no longer get a higher category house. So, there is a furious search for a suitable bungalow that can be occupied quickly. |
