Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray
has slammed BJP leader L K Advani for his statement regarding the 2014
election. Advani had predicted of a non-Congress, non-NDA PM taking charge in
his blog.
Thackeray said in an edition of
his party mouthpiece ‘Saamna’ that statement of Advani in his blog is like a
general saying before a war that there is no guarantee on the outcome and
demoralizing the entire army.
The Shiv Sena Chief mentioned
that this is akin to conceding defeat "without even entering the boxing
ring". He advised the senior BJP leader to not to lose heart. "If
Advani has any doubts, he can come to me and I will give him a dose of morale
and strength," Thackeray said in Saamna.
Thackeray also showed his
confidence about NDA’s coming to power as the single largest group. He expected
that probably Advani is not comfortable with upcoming of two candidates for the
prime minister's post within the NDA, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Gujarat
Chief Minister Narendra Modi. But this problem can be sorted out after the
elections – he said.
Again, about Shiv Sena’s strategy
in the coming election Thackeray said that the party will play a
"free-style wrestling" and even kick and knock down its opponents if
required. He also asked Advani to help defeat Congress instead of playing
politics through blogs and sending a wrong message down the ranks.
