The sudden decision to name Vijay Rupani as the Gujarat Chief Minister was taken amid heated arguments at a meeting of BJP MLAs chaired by Amit Shah.
In a left-handed compliment for Vijay Rupani after he was chosen as the new Chief Minister of Gujarat, Congress on Friday said one must "appreciate his courage for agreeing to steer a sinking ship".
What apparently weighed in Vijay Rupani's favour among other things is his closeness to BJP chief Amit Shah.
The announcement of Vijay Rupani's name as the Gujarat Chief Minister came as a surprise since Nitin Patel was being presumed the final choice.
Union Minister Nitin Gadkari said the BJP members unanimously decided the name of Vijay Rupani for the Gujarat CM seat.
Vijay Rupani emerged as the choice for the Gujarat chief minister spot at the legislature party meeting attended by BJP chief Amit Shah and Union Minister Nitin Gadkari.
