Advani praises ‘Modi magic’
Rejecting the claims made by Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj that Narendra Modi’s magic may not work in Bihar, senior BJP leader L.K. Advani on Sunday heaped a lot of praise on the “leadership” qualities of the Gujarat chief minister.
Writing in his latest blog posted on Sunday, Mr Advani said, “One of the distinctive traits of Narendra bhai’s leadership in Gujarat has been his imaginativeness. Last week, all MPs and MLAs from Gujarat witnessed at the CM residence a slide presentation titled “Gujarat reads” campaign. This is a new facet of the state government’s innovative programmes for Swarnim Gujarat.”
Lauding the campaign launched by the Gujarat government, the octogenarian leader said, the move was aimed at preparing citizens to cultivate reading habits and become better equipped for the needs of the “knowledge century”. Mr Advani’s praise for the Gujarat’s strongman has, interestingly, come just a few days after Ms Swaraj’s remarks during elections campaign in Bihar, where she had said, “Modi’s magic and charisma have worked in Gujarat... But it is not necessary that everybody’s magic works at every place...” The remarks did not go down well with a section of the party and the Leader of the Opposition had to issue a clarification.
