Ready to become Prime Minister in 2019, says Rahul Gandhi

Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday declared that he is ready to become the Prime Minister of India if Congress returns to power and emerges as the “biggest” party in the 2019 Lok Sabha with full majority.

At a gathering of prominent citizens in Bengaluru in the run-up to the May 12 elections in Karnataka, Rahul Gandhi was asked whether he could become Prime Minister if the Congress emerged as the single largest party.

“Well, it depends….it depends on how well the Congress does in the election….I mean if it emerges as the biggest party, yes,” the Congress president responded with a smile.

This is not the first such declaration from Rahul Gandhi, seen for years as a reluctant politician even though he contested three parliamentary elections and was his mother Sonia Gandhi’s deputy in the party for five years.

“It is highly unlikely that BJP will form the next government, and the second part is that it is close to impossible that Modi will be the next prime minister,” he added.
