Since Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister of India, many senior BJP leaders have been feeling discontent and Joshi is one of them. Former Union Minister Yashwant Sinha, after quitting BJP, actively spoke against Narendra Modi. However, Joshi hasn’t been part of the same. Meanwhile, the senior leader’s meeting with Uddhav Thackeray has raised some eyebrows in the political circle.
