| Rahul Gandhi fit to be prime minister, says Lalu Prasad

| Bihar's former Chief Minister and RJD president Lalu Prasad has endorsed Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi as the next prime minister.
He said that Mr Gandhi was "fit to be the prime minister and had all qualities of a bright leader" in Mirzapur yesterday. "Rahul Gandhi has nothing negative about him. If given a chance by the people of India, he would prove to be a good prime minister," he said.
Lalu Prasad added that he would do everything to stop Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi from becoming prime minister.
Hitting out at the BJP, the Rashtriya Janata Dal chief said his tough stance against LK Advani during the Ram Janmbhoomi movement in the early 1990s ensured that the BJP leader never became prime minister.
Lalu Prasad said that he supported the Congress for its secularism but he was displeased with the recent comments of Congress leaders on poverty. He said many people in India could not afford two meals in a day.
He accused Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar of "playing with the lives of school students" and held him responsible for the deaths of 23 children after they ate a mid-day meal in a government school.
"Whatever bad happens in Bihar is heaped on the opposition parties. This is very unfortunate," he said.
