Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Subramanian Swamy on Friday said that former Army chief VK Singh and former IPS officer and Anna Hazare's key aide Kiran Bedi should be invited to join the party.

"We should invite Kiran Bedi and Gen VK Singh to join BJP," Swamy said.

The reactions from Swamy came hours after Bedi openly raised her voice in support of BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi.

Bedi said that her vote would go for Modi in order to have a stable, well governed and inclusive country.

She wrote on Tweeter, "For me it is India First! Stable, Well Governed, Administered, Accountable and Inclusive. As an independent voter, my vote is for NaMo."

In October 2013, while delivering a speech in Ahmadabad, she had backed Modi.

"The man is delivering and has brought good development in Gujarat. His nomination (as BJP's PM candidate) brings more clarity among voters to make their choices," she had said.
