BJP national vice president Raman Singh on Monday revealed that the party was going to announce the name of its new Chhattisgarh chief in a couple of days.
Singh while talking to media persons at his residence in Maulshree Vihar on Monday refused to speculate as to who would adorn the coveted post saying the party’s national president would announce the name of the new chief soon.
Replying to a query whether he too was a front runner for the post, the former chief minister said at present he was national vice president and don’t think the national leadership would change his status so soon.
“What is in the name, we are the political party which believes in collective leadership and it doesn’t matter who among us is chosen for the coveted post”, he added.
He further denied that caste was any parameter to choose the new chief. “It is the performance which matters in our party and the caste is a secondary issue,” he said.
