Congress today hit back at L K Advani for his remarks on UPA government’s “pecking order”, saying the BJP leader should first keep a tab on the rival claimants to the prime minister’s post in his party.
“They should first see in their own backyard that how many claimants for the post of Prime Minister are surfacing in BJP even as the party does not have even a remote chance of coming to power. He better concentrate on his party matters than bothering who is number one or number two in Congress,” party spokesperson Rashid Alvi told reporters here.
Taking a dig at Advani, senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh said, “May God give long life to Advani. As long as he remains a prime ministerial candidate (of BJP) and keeps on taking yatras, we have nothing to worry.”
Their comments came hours after Advani targeted the Congress saying though there was always a question mark over who was the number one in the government, now by creating a “pecking order” a question mark has been raised over who was the number two.
