No posters hitting out at BJP leaders, appeals Sanjay Joshi

Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi's bete noire Sanjay Joshi on Sunday issued an appeal that no posters hitting out at any BJP leader and depicting his photos should be put up again as it harms the party's image.

The appeal, issued on a BJP letterhead though the party maintains he has been "relieved" from the party, says such posters which depict his picture and attack a leader cannot be done by well-wishers of the party. "Though this appears to be job of conspirators, yet I appeal to all my well-wishers, supporters and those have sympathies for me not to put up any posters or take out any pamphlets or hold demonstrations for me", Joshi said.

 

Recently, some posters had been put up at the BJP Headquarters here as well as in Ahmedabad which carried Joshi's photo and targeted Modi without naming him.

Such posters and pamphlets came up again at the BJP Gujarat conclave. "Such activities harm the image of the party. I have always considered the responsibility of the party above myself. The importance of an individual is due to the organisation. For me the party and its ideology is above all", Joshi said.
