Congress MP Pramod Tewari today said none can have faith in Narendra Modi if his own party leaders like L K Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi and Jaswant Singh cannot believe him.

"The basic difference between BJP and Congress is that BJP makes others sacrifice for the sake of power, while Congress itself makes the sacrifice," the Rajya Sabha member said here.

Claiming that the next government at the Centre would be of UPA-III as BJP would never be able to form government, he said, "Modi has never been a leader of the stature of Atalji. And even Atalji in alliance with 36 parties could muster only 186 Lok Sabha seats. How Modiji with just three parties can win majority seats."

Addressing a public rally here before the nomination of Congress candidate from Kheri - Zafar Ali Naqvi - Tewari slammed BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi for the 'Har Har Modi' slogan.

While appealing the locals to support Congress, Tewari posed certain questions before Modi and also did not spare SP and BSP and warned that voting for them would be a waste of ballots as they cannot form their government at the Centre.
