Narendra Bhai will be our PM, says Advani

The senior leader earlier had opposed Modi's candidature for PM post for the general election which is expected to be held in 2014. Advani also had skipped the parliamentary board meeting of the party where Modi was formally declared as BJP's PM nominee.

Advani had resigned from all crucial posts in NDA when BJP had made Modi election campaign chief. However, later he had withdrawn his resignation after being convinced by RSS.
