The breaking news state that senior leader from the BJP party, Yashwant Sinha, has now said that the BJP President Nitin Gadkari should step down immediately.

Earlier, Yashwant Sinha has refused to give any statement on the issue when it was raised by Ram Jethmalani.

Talking to media, Yashwant Sinha said, “Whether our party president is guilty or not is not the issue today. The issue is that all of us in public life should be beyond reproach.”

He said, “I am confident that the issue I am raising has merit and I have faith in the wisdom of the party to be able to deal with this issue.”

Sinha said, “In fact, it is this faith which kept me from issuing this statement earlier. Unfortunately, despite my best effort the party has been unable to take a decision in the matter.”
