Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan today met the top leaders of RSS here following the cabinet reshuffle he carried out last week in which senior ministers Babulal Gaur and Sartaj Singh were dropped.
He met RSS supremo Mohan Bhagwat, general secretaries Bhaiyyaji Joshi and Dattatreya Hosbole, and other senior RSS functionaries.
He had a closed-door meeting with Bhagwat for over 40 minutes, RSS sources said.
Gaur (84) had reportedly conveyed his anguish to the RSS leaders after he was asked to step down owing to his age.
Similarly, Madhya Pradesh PWD minister Sartaj Singh was stated to be unhappy over his ouster, sources said.
Chouhan assured the RSS leaders that he would use the experience and organisational skills of these two leaders for the party and the governance, they added.
Later, Chouhan told reporters that he met Bhagwat and other RSS leaders about the 51-point Ujjain religious fair document (resolutions passed at a conference at Ujjain last month coinciding with the Simhastha Kumbh Mela) and its implementation.
