Many Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders, who have converged here for the party conclave, late Wednesday opted not to stay in the eco-friendly tents citing "health problems", party officials said.

Sources said those who have opted to stay in hotels rather than in 1,300 tents erected at Kushabhau Thakre Nagar, 10 km from here, include former party president Rajnath Singh, Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh, MP Navjot Singh Sidhu and actor-turned-politician Shatrughan Sinha.
