BJP Artificially Extending Gadkari's Tenure

The Old-Boy fatcats at the BJP are amending the party's constitution to ensure chubby-cheeked Gadkari gets an extra term as BJP president. Why? What's so special about Gadkari that he deserves this? To me, it looks more and more like BJP have sold out and become a willing No.2 to the Congress rulers - a mere token opposition. BJP are delivering little or nothing to the people, while allowing Congress to get away with everything. All the better to keep US enterprises like the war in Afghanistan and isolation of Iran going smoothly without being derailed by incongruent Indian national interests. Meanwhile the party old guard are hogging all the positions for themselves and not allowing any new blood like the effective Narendra Modi to advance. Likewise, the cud-chewing RSS seem to be sleepwalking too. If this Old Boys club doesn't start responding to grassroots sentiment, then the people will be more than justified in leaving the BJP high and dry.
