Union Minister Pralhad Joshi.
The method to pick the BJP State president has began and really quickly, a frontrunner will likely be unanimously elected, mentioned Pralhad Joshi, Union Minister of Shopper Affairs, Meals and Public Distribution, in Dharwad on Sunday.
“Neither B.Y. Vijayendra nor V. Somanna have declared that they would be the president. A few of their followers could have felt so and expressed their want brazenly. However whether or not it’s Mr. Vijayendra or Mr. Somanna, the president will likely be elected unopposed,” Mr. Joshi mentioned.
“The method of appointing presidents is on in a number of States. The system in our social gathering is that presidents are usually not nominated. They’re elected. The election could also be unanimous at occasions,” he mentioned.
To a question, he mentioned he didn’t have a transparent concept of what Mr. Somanna had mentioned about this difficulty. “I do know that some leaders have met senior leaders expressing their opinions in regards to the appointments. However I don’t suppose there’s any confusion in regards to the appointment within the social gathering,” Mr. Joshi mentioned.
