Former legislator Yashpal Singh Sisodia, chairman of the Wakf Board Sanwar Patel, Hitesh Vajpayee, and Durgesh Keshwani have also been made speakers.
After the BJP returned to power, excepting those who were appointed on the basis of their castes, most of the leaders were removed from their positions. After their removal, it was said the appointments would be made after the Lok Sabha elections.
But two years have passed since the Lok Sabha elections were held, but the appointments are yet to be made. The delay in appointments spawned anger among the BJP leaders. Senior functionaries of the RSS and leaders of the BJP were also acquainted with the situation.
As a result, the senior leaders of the BJP put pressure on the party leadership to make the appointments soon.
