Shimla, Aug 20 - A day after being expelled from Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Jaswant Singh left for New Delhi Thursday morning after a two-day sojourn here.

'This (Thursday) morning he left for Delhi by road. He checked in this hotel Tuesday noon,' an official at the Oberoi Group's Hotel Cecil told IANS.

Jaswant Singh, who had come here for the three-day chintan baithak (brainstorming meeting) of the BJP that began Wednesday, was told not to attend the session where the decision to expel him was taken.

While all BJP leaders, including L.K. Advani, Rajnath Singh and Sushma Swaraj, were at the state guest house Peterhoff, the venue for the meeting, Jaswant Singh cocooned himself in his hotel and did not meet any of them.
