Arun Jaitley among PM probables, says Punjab MLA
AMRITSAR: While Punjab chief minister Parkash Singh Badal recently termed BJP's Amritsar candidate Arun Jaitley as the future deputy prime minister, sitting MP from Amritsar Navjot Singh Sidhu's wife and BJP MLA from Amritsar East constituency Navjot Kaur Sidhu on Wednesday claimed Jaitley is one of the five prime minister candidates of BJP.

"Jaitley is one of our prime ministerial candidates, he is a very senior leader and one among the five top BJP leaders," she said.

Without giving names of the top five leaders, Kaur said all of them were BJP's prime ministerial candidates and anyone could be prime minister.

Reacting to this, Jaitley said, "I take these remarks as pat on the back".

He said, "I have humility and don't take these comments as more than pat on the back."
