In an explosive tweet, BJP vice president Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi vent out his anger at the induction of expelled JD(U) leader Sabir Ali into the party fold, saying soon Indian Mujahideen leader Yasin Bhatkal and Dawood Ibrahim would be joining the BJP.
Terrorist Bhatakal friend join BJP...soon accepting dawood.........

The tweet came hours after Sabir Ali formally joined the BJP at party's headquarters in Delhi.
Impelled by the angry outburst by the leader, the BJP has decided to reconsider the decision, said party sources.
RSS leader Ram Madhav tweeted, "Sabir Ali's induction has caused great resentment. Party leadership has been apprised of the strong views of the cadre and people against it."
Naqvi however defended party leaders saying they may not be aware of Ali's background and said the decision should be taken back just like Sri Ram Sene chief Pramod Muthalik.
"A terrorist like Bhatkal was arrested from his house. Somewhere the party has made a mistake," he said.
"If we can kick out Muthalik because he is Hindu-vadi, we can correct this mistake... We are well wishers of the party. How can we justify that a person who supported a terrorist is a member of the party," he said.
This is the second instance of a senior BJP leader going public his or her dissent over a party decision in last few days.
Senior BJP leader Sushma Swaraj had earlier tweeted opposing the entry of BSR Congress leader B Sreeramalu in Karnataka.
Even after the entry of Sreeramalu, who is linked to the Bellary mining scam accused Reddy brothers, Swaraj had again tweeted that the same has been done despite her opposition.
BJP President Rajnath Singh had later said that he does not approve of party leaders going public on party matters.
