New Delhi: The Member of Parliament and veteran leader of BJP, Yashwant Sinha was strong on his attitude towards the party which did not seem to take the issue of corruption seriously. Three BJP leaders offered to quit the parliament if the party continued to remain silent on the uproar against corruption.
Besides Yashwant Sinha, Shathrughan Sinha and Uday Singh were the other two MP's who sprung at the party in BJP Parliamentary Party meeting held to discuss the strategy for the ongoing session and towards the All-Party meeting organized by the Government of India.
Yashwant Sinha did mention that the party was weak in its stance and due to its lack of a strong stance, the issue was not taken forward to the state where it should have been. The former finance minister and Hazaribagh MP made the surprise move at the meeting chaired by L K Advani here, which expressed concern over the health of Anna Hazare and made an appeal to the Gandhian to end his fast.
Shatrughan Sinha also found the same opinion and mentioned that the party was keeping mum on required ocassions and was using the Congress party as Boxing bags.
Senior BJP leader SS Ahluwalia, however, sought to downplay questions about Yashwant's offer to resign saying different voices are heard in such meetings and it is the final resolution that actually matters.
