Upset over denial of ticket, former Union Minister and BJP veteran Jaswant Singh today said he has decided to contest the Lok Sabha elections as an independent from the Barmer seat.Talking to a news agency in Jodhpur today singh said he will file his nomination papers tomorrow.

Singh, however, is not resigning from the party yet and said he would consult his colleagues before taking that step. He said nobody in the BJP has reached him ever since he set the 48-hour deadline for quitting the party.

On BJP chief Rajnath Singh's remarks that his services will be utilised appropriately, Jaswant Singh termed it as insulting and said he is not a piece of furniture.

The choice of the adjective 'adjust' itself is indicative of the mentality, he said. The 76-year-old leader, who currently represents Darjeeling in Lok Sabha, is upset over the Barmer seat being given to recent entrant from Congress Sonaram Chowdhry.
