New Delhi, Sept 29: Murli Manohar Joshi, who resigned as HRD minister after a Rae Bareili court decided to frame charges against him in the Babri Masjid demolition case, met Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee today. The decision on Joshi's resignation now rests with the Prime Minister who may also consult other leaders.

The BJP is of the view that Joshi need not resign because the case was "politically motivated". Bureau Report
