New Delhi: Senior BJP leader Keshubhai Patel on Friday threatened to quit the party, and proposed a Third Front for the upcoming Gujarat elections. He is upset with the party for sidelining him.
Keshubhai says he will not renew his party membership and will announce next poll strategy in August.
Keshubhai had earlier said the situation in the state had become "worse" than the Emergency era.
The former chief minister of Gujarat, who was replaced by Narendra Modi in 2001, has been targeting the BJP stalwart in the run-up to the state elections scheduled in December.
