Advani hints at more changes in BJP

Addressing a press conference in Ahmedabad, Advani said, "We have sent two of our most able ministers [M Venkaiah Naidu and Arun Jaitley] for party work and more are likely to follow suit if the need arises."

"This was the way the BJP has set a new benchmark in a bold and innovative self-restructuring," he said.

Advani said the party had shown its ability to restructure in order to effectively respond to changing needs and there was greater willingness for experimentation in the BJP than perhaps in other parties.

He said, "We need to conduct a mid-course review of our policies and programmes. We want to especially focus on improving the government machinery's capacity to implement our policies and programmes with the twin objectives of accelerated poverty alleviation and employment generation."
