Senior BJP leader L.K. Advani’s former aide Sudheendra Kulkarni, who along with party’s two former MPs got bail in the cash-for-vote scam, is likely to join Mr Advani during the last leg of his Janchetna yatra. Sources disclosed Mr Advani called up Mr Kulkarni after the latter walked out of Tihar Jail on Thursday

evening. BJP chief Nitin Gadkari, it was learnt, also spoke to Mr Kulkarni and party leaders on Thursday.
It could be mentioned that Mr Kulkarni had snapped ties with the BJP in 2009 over “serious ideological differences.”
While congratulating his former aide, Mr Advani, it was learnt, invited him to join his yatra.
The Delhi high court earlier this week granted bail to Mr Kulkarni along with BJP’s former MPs, Faggan Singh Kulaste and Mahavir Bhagora in the cash for vote scam.
The court also granted anticipatory bail to party’s sitting MP Ashok Argal in the case.
The BJP will be felicitating these “whistleblowers” on Saturday at its headquarters. The party, which had been protesting against the arrest of these “whistleblowers” who “exposed corrupt deeds to the Congress led UPA” during the 2008 trust vote, will also raise this issue in the upcoming Winter Session of Parliament.
