Live! Advani should gauge public mood on NaMo: Sushil Modi

September 12, 2013 02:14

Amid efforts to convince L K Advani on declaring Narendra Modi as BJP's prime ministerial candidate ahead of 2014 Lok Sabha polls, party leader from Bihar Sushil Kumar Modi today said the veteran leader had failed to gauge the public mood in this regard.

The former Bihar deputy chief minister said Advani had declared Atal Behari Vajpayee as the party's face in the past and he could have done the same for Narendra Modi today.

"Advaniji has failed to gauge the public mood. Advaniji himself declared Atalji as PM candidate. Now also he could have done the same for Namo," Modi said on Twitter.
