CHENNAI, MARCH 16: Janata Party president Subramaniam Swamy today gave indications that all was not well between him and the Bharatiya Janata Party, a day after AIADMK supremo Jayalalitha and BJP reached an agreement on AIADMK and two of its allies joining the BJP-led coalition.Talking to newspersons after calling on Jayalalitha here, he answered a question on his non-inclusion in the Vajpayee-led government, saying, ``it is for the BJP to explain. It is clear they are opposed to me.'' Swamy scotched speculation that he wanted Jayalalitha to push his case for a ministerial berth saying it was a courtesy call and he did not plead his case.
When asked about the possible pulls and pressures from other constituents of the BJP front, Swamy said it was Vajpayee's headache, not his. ``I will not give any headache."
