Still, nothing is simple in the parivar these days. There is no guarantee yet the BJP will meekly submit to the Sangh suggestions. Meanwhile, to sort out the confusion all around a number of meetings are on the cards—a BJP national executive in Chennai in mid-September, two chintan baithaks (introspection sessions) and a BJP session plus one between the top brass of the BJP-RSS. The dates are undecided but Sushma Swaraj says: "Usually every issue, including the leadership question, are on the agenda." Then between October 19-24, a high-powered rss meeting in Chitrakoot will take stock of the BJP. A season of transition, worry and introspection indeed.
