In a bid to avoid replying to questions on whether Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Sushma Swaraj would be projected as the BJP's prime ministerial candidate for the 2014 general election, party spokesperson Prakash Javadekar yesterday said that at present the focus should be on the coal blocks allocation scam rather than who would be the next PM of the country.
Javadekar was addressing mediapersosns in the city and spoke on the UPA government’s alleged involvement in the ‘coalgate’ scam. On Saturday, Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray had said that Swaraj was the only BJP leader who would make a deserving prime ministerial candidate. The Shiv Sena is one of the BJP’s prominent partners in the NDA. u00a0
