Vajpayee, Advani aide Sudheendra Kulkarni quits

S
udheendra Kulkarni, close aide of former Prime Minsiter Atal Bihari Vajpayee and later of Lal Krishna Advani has decided to end his active association with the BJP. Kulkarni had stepped down as an office-bearer in 2005 after Advani's Jinnah controversy.

After the election defeat in 2009, Kulkarni had written that the "BJP and Sangh Parivar made a strong leader like Advani look weak, helpless and not fully in command".

He was against Varun Gandhi's hate speech and felt BJP's allies had drifted away after the Gujarat riots.
