No Prime Ministerial Ambitions: Advani

New Delhi, Nov 8 (IANS): On his 85th birthday, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader L.K. Advani Thursday brushed away suggestions of his wanting to be the party's prime ministerial candidate.

"The party and the country have given me so much, it is much more than becoming the prime minister," Advani told reporters.

Advani is known to nurse prime ministerial ambitions and during the 2009 general elections he had gone on a countrywide rath yatra to connect with people.

Among those who went to greet Advani were party chief Nitin Gadkari, who is under attack for alleged financial impropriety in the funding of his Purti Group.

Advani had not gone for the BJP core group meeting on Tuesday to decide on the future of Gadkari in the wake of allegations against him. The party has reposed faith in Gadkari's leadership and said he has done "no legal or moral wrong".

However, Advani supported Gadkari in a blog last month, where he congratulated the BJP chief on saying he was open to a probe.

    Even Deve Gowda, Gujral and even Chandrashekar became the Prime Ministers. How come your chance didn't turn up. Are you weaker than Dr. Manmohan Singh?

    The people who have commnted above are either they are of corrupt praactice or anti nationals. Because they used low level comment to a person like Advani, who practiced non corrupt and clean image in entire life. What these people say about Sonia everyday cases coming out.
