Will support Narendra Modi as PM candidate, says BJD

[Nair saab]

The Biju Janata Dal (BJD ) seems to be getting close to its former ally BJP once again.

In an interview to a leading English daily, senior BJD leader and Lok Sabha MP Bhartruhari Mahtab said that his party would be willing to support a BJP-led government if the party and its allies have the capability to form the government at the Centre.

The party led by Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has in the last few years kept away from both the BJP and the Congress after it walked out of the NDA.

Mahtab reportedly said that the BJD was not averse to backing even Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, who is often seen as the BJP's communal face, as the party's prime ministerial candidate.
