Advani - A Hawk?
by jamsheed abumohammed on Mar 21, 2008 06:40 PM

L.K.Advani is being projected as leader for future.He was said be a hawk of the party.He held his views on certain matters and lived with it.Was a real Hawk of the party? is a debatable question.He shot to fame through his infamous Rath Yathra,that culminated into BJP emerging as a Party and consequent destruction of Babri Masjid.He not only led the destruction but was also a spectator to carnage in Ayodha.He was later charged criminally in the same case.Such a person who could not take the entire population along,could hardly become a national leader or for that matter future PM.For his hawkish views,he is not liked by many seniors in the party and other leaders of political parties too have their own reservation against him.Therefore he would not be a consesus candidate for the post of PM, if there is any chance for BJP to rule once again. Besides, many top leaders like Uma Bharathi left the party mainly due to his leadership.It was Atalji that gave some respect to the party. See what happened in Gujarat where he let Modi to take the centre stage in the campaign. Result he emerged as a leader dwarfing the entire top leadership of BJP.If Advani had the same stature of a national leader,he would have led the campaign and not leaving the field for the infamous Modi.This shows the bankruptsy of the leadership of the party and its demise is certain in the next hustings.It is for sure that Congress and allies are going to rule the country for next ten yhears and BJP a spectator.
