Terming BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi's 'Run For Unity' campaign as an initiative for national integration, party leader Vinay Katiyar today said that the move will lead to a new awakening among the people.
"The initiative has united the whole country and will lead to a new awakening among the people of this country," Katiyar who attended the programme at the Brijendra Swaroop Park here said.
Asked about the support to Lokpal bill, he said if the UPA government presents the bill with the amendments suggested by the BJP, his party would support the anti-corruption law.
If the suggestions were not accepted, BJP will have to rethink its decision, he said.
Katiyar refused to talk further on the bill.
The 'Run for Unity' campaign was attended by just 500 people at the Brijendra Swaroop Park here, though BJP city unit was drummimg up support for the programme for the past one week.
