BJP leader L.K. Advani on Sunday said a non-Congress, non-BJP Prime Minister supported by any of these two parties is “feasible” in the next general elections but cautioned that this may not be a very stable dispensation.
The following is what was reported about Nitish Kumar’s demands:
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has sought an assurance from the Bharatiya Janata Party that his Gujarat counterpart Narendra Modi will not be National Democratic Alliance's prime ministerial candidate for the 2014 general elections. Kumar made this clear to BJP president Nitin Gadkari when he met him during the oath taking ceremony of Pranab Mukherjee as President last month, sources close to the Bihar chief minister told PTI.
It is obvious to even the most ignorant that these two are working on a selfish agenda. Advani could not become the PM so he is behaving like the proverbial frustrated cat. He sees an eminently beatable Congress but realizes that no one wants him, so he is going around planting seeds of doubts in the BJP cadre. This has got to be very demoralizing to the grassroots workers.
Small successes in Bihar have gone to Nitish Kumar’s head. He is having dreams of becoming a national player. One look at the recent law and order reports out of Bihar (including reports on increasing jihadi and illegal Bangladeshi presence in Bihar) tells you that his work in Bihar is far from being done. He has brought Bihar from the negative hole to the zero level. Now we need to see some positives. Only then will he find relevance on the national screen. His performance is not even as good as the BJP CMs of MP and Chhattisgarh let alone Narendra Modi. Someone needs to give him a taste of humble pie. This man is becoming too big for his shoes.
Here is my appeal to Nitish Kumar and Advani:
If you guys like India to prosper and come out of the shithole dug by the Congress then let people of India decide on their own. Do not put thoughts and your own petty selfish agendas in their minds. Advaniji, if you do not want to go out as the most hated BJP leader then read the tea leaves and disappear into the sunset. NO ONE WANTS YOU AROUND ANYMORE. YOU ARE AS RELEVENT AS LAST YEAR’S NEWSPAPER. As Hindu nationalistic aam aadmi, I would like both of you to shut the hell up and let the voters decide. As it is, Anna Hazare and his team are going to split the opposition votes and give the advantage back to Congress. We do not want a disillusioned, frustrated old coot from our party and an enemy in friend’s clothing to destroy any chance of getting rid of Congress.

As far as Advani is concerned there is no cure for old age senility.
ReplyDeleteI agree with this opinion. BJP done mistake by supporting Anna knowing that anti BJP people are present in that team. Whatever Anna is doing that should be done by BJP itself instead of supporting others.
ReplyDeleteAdvani should retire respectfully. Nitin Gadkari should take initiative to install Narendra Modi as party president in this year. Declaring Modi as PM candidate of 2014 will not serve the purpose. He must be made Party President this year. Because a candidate can become PM only if his party wins the required number. It will be very difficult to revive the BJP under leadership of XYZ.
ReplyDeleteGadkari's own ambitions will never let him do what is necessary. Modi needs to win Gujarat elections with a thumping majority and become an undeclared PM candidate. Sudarshan is absolutely right in saying that declaring him a candidate serves no purpose except give ammo to PM wannabes like Nitish and (amazingly) Advani.
