Breaking News! Former Gujarat Chief Minister Keshubhai Patel quit the BJP today. He is expected to form a new political party. He has sent his resignation to the party Chief Nitin Gadkari.

Patel, who remained one of the most influential leaders in Gujarat, is a bitter critic of his colleague and present CM Narendra Modi.


Patel is likely to announce a new party on Saturday evening. Before sending resignation to Gadkari, he met his loyalists Kashiram Rana, Suresh Mehta at his residence to chalk out strategy.
