Don’t put up anti-BJP posters: Sanjay Joshi
18 Jun 2012 1:18 AM GMT
Former Bharatiya Janata Party [BJP] leader Sanjay Joshi Sunday appealed against putting up posters with his pictures and attacking BJP leaders as this would harm the party’s image.
‘This is a job of conspirators, yet I appeal to all my well-wishers and supporters to refrain from putting up any posters or issue pamphlets,’ said Joshi, adding that such posters which depict his picture and attack a leader cannot be put up by his well-wishers.
Though Joshi, a bitter foe of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, quit the BJP on 8 June, the appeal was issued on a BJP letterhead.
Several posters that did not refer to Modi by name but blamed Joshi’s exit from BJP’s national executive due to the stubborness of ‘one leader’ - a clear reference to Modi, appeared on 5 June outside the BJP headquarters in Delhi and Ahmedabad.
The multi-coloured posters had a large image of Joshi, and described his forced exit from the national executive as ‘bullying’.
