“I will consider myself to be ready for it if such an offer is made.”As the general election neared Gen (retd) V.K.Singh was announced the BJP candidate from Ghaziabad LS constituency. Until then she (Bedi) stuck to her words. However, she hailed Narendra Modi and viewed a competent leader in him. She might have thought or not about the reward but her inclination towards the BJP was visible. And now the time for her reward has come. Her consent brought her desire to fore. After Kejriwal’s resignation as the CM, the Assembly of Delhi was in suspended state. Now the L-G is in the wait and watch mood. But the prevailing political situation doesn’t allow the assembly to continue except fresh election.

I no more rule out entering indian political service on capability basis. I am moving towards some flexibility in this. @FeminaIndia

However, in his reply Dr. Harsha Vardhan refuted such possibilities. He said there were no such talks within the party. In this course, the expelled AAP MLA Vinod Kumar Binny on Monday called upon BJP, AAP and Congress leaders to consider Ms. Bedi for the post of Delhi chief minister. He said that fresh Assembly elections would be a wastage of
public money.
In fact, it would obviously disturb Dr. Vardhan. He won’t leave his claim easily. Whereas Binny’s call would obviously go futile and the assembly election can’t be avoided anyway.
