New Delhi, Dec 26: Top BJP leaders, including Deputy Prime Minister L K Advani, today reviewed the political situation in the country and discussed the option of calling early general elections.
The party is on a high following victory in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. The party now wants to capitalise on the gains made in state elections.
Though a final decision would be taken at the BJP’s nation executive meeting in Hyderabad next month, the indications for advancing dates for Lok Sabha polls are very prominent. The meeting, held at party president Venkaiah Naidu's residence, also discussed organisational matters with the leaders not favouring a change in leadership in Uttar Pradesh as of now, party sources said.
The Uttar Pradesh unit is at present headed by Vinay Katiyar.

The meeting was also attended by party general secretaries Pramod Mahajan and Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi, besides law minister Arun Jaitley.
