Why is Advani fighting with Modi? None will become PM: Lalu

September 12, 2013 22:59

Describing the reported spat between LK Advani and Narendra Modi on the issue of BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate as a fight between "guru and chela", RJD President Lalu Prasad today wondered whether there was any chance of either of them entering that office.

"Advani, who has been a guru (teacher) to Modi on communal politics is today fighting his own 'chela' (disciple)," the RJD president said. "But is there any chance of either of them becoming Prime Minister, (the post) for which they are clashing," Prasad told reporters here.

Apprehending that the 2014 polls would be a "dangerous" one due to the "divisive" politics of BJP and RSS, Prasad urged Congress and other secular forces to come together to defeat such elements.
