JOIN USAdvani, who begins a 38-day Jan Chetna Yatra Tuesday across several states, said there was no dearth of leaders in the BJP.
“Who will be prime minister, the party will decide when the time comes. Three years are still left for the elections. However, the (United Progressive Alliance) government has been run in a way that it can fall anytime. People are tolerating it,” Advani said, answering queries from mediapersons.
"There is no dearth of leaders (in the BJP capable of being prime minister)," he said. Advani, 83, had sought to put at rest speculation about his yatra being linked to prime ministerial sweepstakes in the BJP after he met Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat in Nagpur last month.
"I became a swayamsevak of the Sangh, then a member of Jan Sangh and then BJP," Advani said. "I feel what I have got from these organisations, from my colleagues, from the country, is much more than the post of prime minister," Advani had said after meeting Bhagwat to seek his blessings for the yatra.
