West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Tuesday said she felt sad for veteran BJP leader Lal Krishna Advani who was denied a ticket by his party to contest the LokSabha elections.
“I feel sad for Advaniji. He and Vajpayeeji were BJPseniors. But see how he has been left out. It is disgraceful that you cannotvalue seniority,” Banerjee told reporters here.
“You have to give (ticket) to young, women… but you cannot ignore some senior leaders,” she said.
