Jethmalani has written a letter to the members of BJP Parliamentary board in which he reportedly said that some of the issues of corruption against Nitin Gadkari have substance in them.
BJP's Rajya Sabha MP Ram Jethamalni further writes that the Party would do well by removing Nitin Gadkari from the Presidentship.
The details of the letter are yet not public. A defiant Jethmalani is not ready to share anything with media now and has said that he nurses no ambition to call a press conference on the issue.
Also,the infighting intensified with a personal war escalating between Arun Jaitley and Ram Jethmalani. The issue related to appointment of Ranjeet Sinha as CBI Director.
Ram Jethmalani is believed to have said that Arun Jaitley was advocating the case of Delhi Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar and that is why BJP has opposed the appointment of Ranjit Sinha.
Jaitley was quick to add that the opposition to the appointment was not based on this individual or that, it was matter of principle and was part of the Lok Pal draft accepted by the government.
Jethmalani, meanwhile has denied receiving any show cause notice so far. I will first see it and decide whether I have to reply or shove it in the dustbin, he said in Delhi while coming out of the Parliament House.
BJP on Monday had issued a show-cause notice to Ram Jethmalani asking him to explain why he should not be expelled from the party for "anti-party" activities and indiscipline.
"The Parliamentary Board confirmed the decision of national president Nitin Gadkari to immediately suspend Ram Jethmalani for his indiscipline and anti-party activities. He has also been issued a notice on why he should not be expelled from the party for six years," BJP general secretary Ananth Kumar told reporters after the meeting.
Kumar, however, said the issue of the statements made by its Lok Sabha MPs Yashwant Sinha and Shatrughan Sinha against Gadkari and its Leaders of the Opposition in the two Houses of Parliament did not come up for discussion in the meeting. The two leaders have also demanded Gadkari's resignation.
Jethmalani , however said on Tuesday that there is a lot of differences between the “crime” committed by him (Jethmalani) and that of Shatrughan Sinha.
