.and proved our majority on the floor of the assembly, Swaraj said.

She said according to my information no newsmen were allowed to enter the MJP meeting yesterday. We have paraded our MLAs before the newsmen at several places including Delhi and at public meetings.

If Vaghela or Parikh was called to form a ministry in the state it would be an insult to democracy and the BJP would take the issue to the streets, Swaraj added.

Swaraj said the Centre used muscle power to dismiss the BJP ministry led by Suresh Mehta within 24 hour of winning a confidence vote and nowhere in the world of democracy such an incident had taken place.

 

Replying to a question, former Gujarat parliamentary affairs minister Bhupendrasinh Chudasama, who was also present at the press conference, said the secretary of the Gujarat legislative assembly had informed him in a letter that the confidence motion in favour of the Mehta ministry was passed by 92 votes in favour and none against in a House with effective strength of 179 with the acting speaker abstaining from the voting.

We have 93 MLAs intact and the claim of Parikh that more BJP MLAs have joined the breakaway froup is all false, Chudasama added.
