The crisis in the BJP seems no closer to a solution. Vasundhara Raje skipped her appointment with senior leader Venkaiah Naidu on Monday. Instead, she sent her son Dushyant.
The dissident BJP leader was scheduled to come to Delhi to try and end the deadlock with the party leadership which had appointed Venkaiah Naidu to mediate with her.
Raje has been asked to step down as the leader of the opposition in Rajasthan, taking responsibility for BJP's losses in the last elections. She is likely to submit her resignation today.
The BJP has been in a bind over how to give Raje an honourable exit and how to end the rebellion in its Rajasthan unit.
Raje had said she would obey the central leadership, saying she was a 'disciplined soldier' of the party and its order was 'supreme' to her.
Raje had also said that she was planning to meet RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat.
