The BJP's National Executive and National Council meets here tomorrow to prepare a roadmap and finetune strategies for the coming Lok Sabha elections as it searches for new allies to bolster the NDA led by the saffron party.

The three-day conclave of the main opposition party in this orange city in Maharashtra hopes to zero in on issues that could woo voters to give the mandate to help it regain power and make its stalwart L K Advani the next Prime Minister.

The mega events of the saffron party are considered crucial important as it provides the last chance for the party to get its act together ahead of the polls and steer the National Democratic Alliance(NDA).

"The three-day meet would be a session dedicated to give directions to the party rank and file for the final Lok Sabha polls preparation," party vice-president Muqtar Abbas Naqvi said.

But the party appears to be far from fighting fit given the desertion by senior leader Kalyan Singh whose contribution in the Ayodhya movement was only next to Advani. Former Vice-President Bhairon Singh Shekhawat has not helped the party or Advani either by announcing his plans to contest the Lok Sabha elections.
