`BJP has no objections to Kalam's Gujarat visit'

By Our Special Correspondent

NEW DELHI AUG. 10. While asserting that the situation in Gujarat was ``perfectly normal'', the BJP today said it had no objections to the President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam's proposed visit to Gujarat on Monday.

Stating that Assembly elections in the strife-torn State would turn out to be a ``healer'', the party general-secretary and spokesman, Arun Jaitley, claimed that Gujarat had remained ``incident-free'' over the past three months and a majority of the people in the relief camps had been rehabilitated.

On the President's August 12 visit to Gujarat, he said: ``As head of the nation, the President is free to visit any State and take information wherever he goes. Nobody should have any objection to it.''
