The wife of murdered BJP leader and former Gujarat Minister Haren Pandya today said she has kept her options open as far as politics is concerned.
"I have kept my options open as far as politics is concerned," Jagruti Pandya said here.
She, however, did not provide further details.
Jagruti ventured into politics by joining the Gujarat Parivartan Party (GPP), an outfit launched in September 2012 which merged with ruling BJP last month.
She had unsuccessfully contested the December 2012 Assembly election from Ellisbridge, a seat in Ahmedabad once represented by her husband, who was shot dead on March 26, 2003.
The Gujarat High Court had acquitted all the 12 people arrested by CBI in the murder case.
Jagruti said she would continue her battle to get justice.
Yesterday, in a reply to a question on her political future, she had said, "I have no plans to join any other party. I had joined the GPP and the moment its leaders went back to BJP, I decided to put a full stop to politics.
