Speculation is rife that the charismatic Indian-American governor Bobby Jindal, who has been invited to deliver a keynote address to the national fundraising of the Republican Party, may be a front runner in the 2012 presidential elections.
37-year-old Jindal, the governor of Louisiana, is a rising star of the party that could be looking for a dynamic and charismatic personality to lead Republicans in the 2012 presidential elections.
For the last eight years, the keynote address at this fundraiser had been delivered by the former US president, George W Bush.
Jindal is considered by many a "hope" for the Republican Party, which after drubbing in the presidential and congressional elections last year, is desperately seeking a charismatic personality to lead the organisation in the 2012 presidential elections.
Congressman Pete Sessions from Texas, who is the chairman of National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC), announced on Friday that Jindal has been invited to deliver the address at this fundraising dinner scheduled to be held on March 24 in Washington.
"Bobby is a rising star and is a part of a new generation of leadership in our party," Sessions said on Saturday in an email written to the donors.
"He has a budding record of success, having implemented sound, common sense business practices since he took office in 2007 and started rebuilding his great state," Sessions said.
In December, Jindal had delivered a keynote address at a conservative group's dinner in the Iowa State, which is considered to be the presidential battleground, fueling speculation that the Louisianan Governor is eyeing for the top party nomination in 2012.
As the news about Jindal addressing the key Republican fundraiser broke out, the US media speculated that the party is gearing to project Jindal as the nominee for the 2012 presidential elections.
Jindal, for his part, has always denied that he is in the running for the 2012 elections and said he would concentrate on development of Louisiana which had been badly hit by the devastating Katrina hurricane a few years ago.
