Uma Bharti quits as Bharatiya Janshakti President, set for BJP homecoming
Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh):Bharatiya Janshakti President Uma Bharti has written a
letter to Sanghpriya Gautam, the acting president of the party, seeking a break from the party in view of the political situation in the country and her present
state of health. In her letter to Gautam, Bharti said: "My responsibility of being
Bharatiya Janshakti President and my earnest desire for introspection and
contemplation
with a free mind is putting too much strain on my body and mind." Bharti requested
Gautam to appoint Baburam Nishad as the president of the party. Sources close
