Uma dares Advani to contest against her in MP
Bhartiya Janshakti Party (BJS) President Uma Bharti on Wednesday dared BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate L K Advani to contest the Lok Sabha polls against her from any seat in Madhya Pradesh.
"I dare Advani to contest the Lok Sabha polls against me from any seat in Madhya Pradesh," Bharti shot back when reporters asked that BJP has challenged her to contest the assembly polls against the Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan.
"I don't consider even BJP President Rajnath Singh of this stature," she said.
To a question Bharti also said that she will not contest the November 27 assembly polls in Madhya Pradesh due to paucity of time.
"I wanted to contest the assembly polls from Dhar seat but due to paucity of time it is not possible for me to fight the elections," she said.
On poll alliance with other parties in the state, she said that her party will have a truck with the Gondwana Gantantra Party (GGP) and with no other political party.
