New Delhi: BJP president Nitin Gadkari will meet two former BJP MPs Fuggan Singh Kulaste, Mahavir Singh Bhagora and LK Advani's former aide Sudheendra Kulkarni in Tihar Jail on Monday, sources said.
He will meet them after the Delhi High Court on Monday sought response from the police on their bail pleas.
Kulkarni, who is in jail since September 27, has challenged the trial court's order which had rejected his bail plea saying that he was the 'guiding star' and 'facilitator' of the conspiracy aimed at mocking the Republic of India.
In the petition filed through advocate Mahipal Ahluwalia, Kulkarni claimed that he, along with the BJP MPs, got involved in the sting operation, conducted by a private news channel only to expose the 'horse trading' that was going on to save the then UPA-I government in the vote of trust in the Lok Sabha on July 22, 2008.
Claiming themselves to be 'whistle blowers' who helped in exposing corruption, the accused pleaded that the trial court had wrongly dismissed their bail pleas and that order should be set aside.
