Did not know whether he was PM or elder brother: Lone

November 10, 2014 17:44

People's Conference leader Sajjad Lone met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday evening triggering speculations that he might join hands with the BJP. Lone said that "PM Modi was a down-to-earth, great human being', and he 'did not find any difference whether he was PM or an elder brother'.

Lone's meeting comes days before Jammu and Kashmir goes to polls on November 25.

The former separatist leader recently met the senior BJP leader and former RSS spokesperson Ram Madhav who did not rule out a post-election alliance with Lone's People's Conference in poll-bound Jammu and Kashmir.
