New Delhi, January 23
The return of the Rashtriya Kranti Party president and former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Kalyan Singh to the BJP is likely to be formalised soon.

“There is no opposition in the party to the move to bring Mr Kalyan Singh back,” BJP general secretary Pramod Mahajan told reporters here today.

The high-level meeting of the party at the Prime Minister’s residence today also deliberated about the modalities of Mr Kalyan Singh’s “home coming.”

“I had already told the Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister and party President about my meeting with Mr Kalyan Singh. Today I apprised the meeting about my talks with him in Lucknow a couple of days back,” he added.

The move to bring him back had picked up momentum since December 24 when he had greeted Mr Vajpayee on the his birthday in Lucknow.
