Plan to contest all seats in three States Party’s campaign launched at Puri BHUBANESWAR: Bharatiya Janashakti Party leader Uma Bharti on Wednesday said she was realistically foreseeing that by next parliamentary elections she could be able to create a major division in Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Addressing a press conference here, Ms. Bharti said the BJP was ideologically becoming pauper while rift within the party was getting widened with every passing day. “BJP is divided between two groups of people. One group believes in ideology, while the other can go to any extent or compromise with the ideology in pursuit of power. So there is already a division,” she said. A group of senior leaders, including a few former presidents of BJP, were already in touch with her party to break away from their party for joining Janashakti, Ms. Bharti said adding that she would retain good cadre from BJP. The coming Assembly elections in Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Rajasthan would be keenly watched by these leaders before taking any decision, she said. The Bharatiya Janashakti Party leader said she had strengthened party’s base from panchayat level in these three States and would field candidates in all the Assembly seats. Ms. Bharti, a former top-notch leader of BJP, dismissed the reports that she was returning to her old party. “Rumours about my return to BJP are strategically spread to weaken Janashakti,” she alleged Ms. Bharti launched her party’s campaign from Puri for the next parliamentary as well as Assembly elections from Puri Jagannath Temple.
