| Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Sunday said her brother Rahul Gandhi would one day become the Prime Minister of the country as he had all the qualities needed for the top post. However, she was quick to add that Manmohan Singh will be the Prime Minister if the Congress is voted to power in the coming elections.
Asked if she herself planned to join politics, Priyanka did not say a direct ‘no’. “I have realised that in politics one should never say no,” she said, and then added: “But I do not see this happening.”
When asked whether she thought Rahul was qualified enough to become the Prime Minister, she told reporters: “I have full faith in my brother. He is hardworking. He means well. He is, according to me, qualified... So, one day he will. He will do a good job of it.”
And then she added: “But, as of now, Manmohan Singh is the PM and will be the PM when the Congress again comes to power after the Lok Sabha elections
Priyanka was talking to reporters after addressing a public meeting in Ayodhyanagar area of Rahul’s constituency Amethi. She is camping in Amethi so that Rahul is free to campaign elsewhere in the country.
Her remarks came even as the BJP continued to attack Singh, with BJP general secretary Arun Jaitley saying in Chandigarh that the country was facing a difficult time on economic and internal security fronts because “India lacks a strong leadership”.
