JOshi book reveals BJP’s economic divide
by Sanjay K Jha
New Delhi, May 2: Differences among top BJP leaders on the economic policy India should pursue will again come to the fore when Murli Manohar Joshi’s book hits the stands next week. The former human resource development minister pans economic liberalisation in contrast to L.K. Advani’s passionate support for the Manmohan Singh line. The book argues that the consequences of unlimited growth are frightening and could trigger global turmoil.

In the party with a difference, ever-squabbling BJP leaders have found a new way to be one-up over one another. Former BJP president Murli Manohar Joshi is set to release a book, close on the heels of the much-talked-about one by NDA’s prime ministerial candidate L K Advani. “I will not go to the doorstep of Sonia Gandhi or for that matter any other politician with an invite, with the sole exception of former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee,” Joshi underlines to the people he meets these days.

BJP leader Murli Manohar Joshi is the third leader of his party to pen a book while still in politics. But he insists this one is different. In what many believe that it is a veiled attack on his colleagues, L K, Advani and Jaswant Singh, Joshi said he didn’t approve of politicians authoring autobiographies.
