Declare Anandiben Patel as Guj CM candidate says Subramanian Swamy

Former CM Anandiben’s popularity in Gujarat is rising very fast.

2-Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Gujarat, BJP leader Subramanian Swamy suggested that Anandiben Patel be made the Chief Ministerial candidate.

Former CM Anandiben's popularity in Gujarat is rising very fast. I think we should make her the CM candidate for BJP to win easily in polls," tweeted Dr Swamy, on the eve of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's two-day visit to Gujarat where he will lay foundation stones and inaugurate a number of projects with an eye on the Assembly elections.

Patel was replaced last year after corruption and nepotism allegations. There also were talks that she was losing the grip over administration. With crucial polls just round the corner, BJP leadership, including Modi, have been visiting the state frequently.
