BJP's doors are open: Goel to Kapil Mishra

NEW DELHI: Union Minister Vijay Goel paid a visit to rebel Aam Aadmi Party MLA and former minister in the Arvind Kejriwal government Kapil Mishra on Monday and said the doors of the BJP were open for him.

Goel's visit was part of the BJP's nationwide campaign, 'Sampark for Samarthan', in the run-up to the 2019 Lok Sabha election.

"The BJP's doors have been open for him since he parted ways with the AAP. Now he has to take a decision," Goel told reporters after meeting Mishra.

Mishra was removed from the Delhi government by Chief Minister Kejriwal last year, following which Mishra levelled allegations of corruption against Kejriwal and Delhi minister Satyendar Jain. Mishra has been a vocal critic of the AAP dispensation ever since.
