BJP announces new team

The new BJP core team has been announced with Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi being inducted in the party's parliamentary Board on expected lines. However, the inclusion of Modi's aide and former Gujarat Home Minister Amit Shah, named by CBI as the mastermind behind the abduction and fake counters of alleged terrorist Sohrabuddin Sheikh has raised many eyebrows.

Uma Bharati, Smriti Irani, Prabhat Jha and Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi have been made new vice presidents. One surprising exclusion from the party's parl board is MP Chief Minister Shivraj Chauhan.
