Joshi discounts Modi wave, calls it BJP wave
"This wave or that wave, Modi is a representative of the party as a PM candidate. So, it's not a highly personalised thing, it is a representative wave. He gets the support from different parts of the country, from different sections of the society and from all leaders of the BJP," Joshi told Manorama News.
Joshi also said that the Gujarat model is not the only model to govern the country.
He said good points of all states will be taken. "... may be some good points from Tripura will also be there, may be some good points of Maharashtra will be there," he said.
He said in India what developmental model is true for Jammu and Kashmir or Arunachal Pradesh, may not be true for Kerala.
He also commented on the expulsion of Jaswant Singh from the party for his decision to contest from Barmer in Rajasthan as Independent after he was denied a party ticket.
"If it could have been avoided, I think it would be better. It's true that this decision was taken by the president and the chief minister but not as a behind-the-back decision. It was almost certain that they will decide it. Yes, but the fact that Mr Jaswant Singh will not be given a ticket, did not come for discussion," Joshi said.
