Immediately after BJP’s debacle in the Bihar Assembly polls, there is an open revolt in the party. Veterans like LK Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi, Yashwant Sinha & Shanta Kumar who did not have much of a role to play in the last one year, have hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP President Amit Shah for the party’s shocking defeat. There is no denying that these leaders have been taking a dig at Modi and Amit Shah from time to time and were just waiting for the perfect opportunity to attack directly. One can understand what these veterans have said that those who managed the campaign in Bihar cannot shrug off responsibility in times of defeat especially when they have taken credit in times of victory but what is strange is their own lack of responsibility towards the party. At a time when campaigning in Bihar was underway, none of these senior leaders especially those of the Margdarshak Mandal or the advisory panel, took the initiative to give their useful insights and guide the party but instead chose to remain within the confines of their own houses.
