| As it battled an aggressive Congress on the first day of the monsoon session of Parliament, the ruling BJP seemed to pin much on division in the opposition ranks on the issue of its senior leaders caught in scandals resigning.
The party alleged that the Congress was isolated in demanding that foreign minister Sushma Swaraj and its two chief ministers Vasundhara Raje from Rajasthan and Shivraj Singh Chouhan from Madhya Pradesh must resign.
On Tuesday, however, those hopes came unstuck. "Remove the ministers and go for a thorough investigation," the Left's Sitaram Yechury said, also supporting the Congress' contention that the BJP must do now as they demanded when in opposition. "The BJP should apply the same yardstick now in power that they rightly demanded of UPA," Mr Yechury said.

Mayawati, of the Bahujan Samaj Party, said, "The Lalit Modi scam which involved the foreign minister and Rajasthan chief minister, is a serious matter... I believe that they should be removed from their positions."
