Political blackmail?

Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) President Nitin Gadkari is upset with former Rajasthan chief minister Vasundhara Raje and former Karnataka chief minister B S Yeddyurappa. He feels the two leaders are causing problems for the party by threatening to form their own parties in their respective states, and they don’t want to share authority in their states with other BJP leaders. “The two leaders, Vasundhara Raje and B S Yeddyurappa, are indulging in ‘blackmail tactics’ with Nitin Gadkari because they know he is going through a difficult time with repeated allegations of corruption levelled against him,” said a senior party leader.
