  • 5 years ago
India News: BJP leader L.K. Advani will skip the party office-bearers meeting in Goa on Friday, which will chart out the agenda for the party's national executive meet, due to "ill-health", triggering speculation over his reported reservations over projecting Narendra Modi as the next prime ministerial candidate.

85-year-old Advani, who is reportedly opposed to the declaration of Mr. Modi as head of the BJP Campaign Committee for Lok Sabha polls, may attend the two-day National Executive meet starting on Saturday if his health permits, sources close to him said.
