L.K.Advani could be spoil-sport for Modi

Everyone thought Narendra Modi does have a field day and he could romp home to victory as the next Prime Minister. But tarry a bit, there is 87-year-old party veteran L.K.Advani who wants to become the PM in case the BJP does not get a sweeping number of MPs.

In fact there are talks of a 160 club which wants the party's strength in the Lok Sabha limited to that figure. In that case secularists would not weer round to supporting Narendra Modi, instead they would want Advani to lead the country.

But Modi has been thinking hard about it and maybe trying to settle Advani at Gandhinagar from where he had become MP for the last 16 years.

But Advani fears that Modi's grassroots level workers may not do his calling. Defeat may face him. That is why he is angling for the Bhopal seat which Narendra Modi is not keen to give to Advani.

If Advani fumes, there may be trouble for BJP.
