It is not a question of the MJP joining the United Front. Our support is there for them. The process of merger has already started with Y K Alagh being already there in the UF from Gujarat. We are interested that the UF safeguards our (Gujarat) interest, he declared at his first press conference here after assuming office.

I am supporting the government at the Centre for promoting my cause, he added.

Replying to questions, he said his ministry was stable and progressive and had a result oriented approach.

Replying to questions, Vaghela said the BJP had boycotted his confidence motion in the Gujarat assembly since it had no confidence in its MLAs. All their (BJP) programmes had flopped and were exposed. As regards the March 20 incident leading to Vaghela parting company with BJP, he said if there are any FIRs against any persons, the case will take its course.I will not indulge in witch hunting. He met Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda to discuss the Narmada dam issue.
