The Supreme Court’s orders to launch criminal investigations against a dozen or so, (nearly a dozen leaders will be sued again) and top BJP leaders had smashed the dreams of Lal Krishna Advani, once spoken of as PM-in-waiting and recently, as he was fond of thinking, President-in-waiting. But the Advani camp is not laying down its arms so soon. They are countering by saying that Uma Bharati is also among those named in the case. If she has not resigned her ministerial job on moral grounds, then the same morality applies and Advaniji is just the man of the hour. Now it is Narendra Modi who will have to take a final call.
