Digvijay Singh better as PM than Rahul Gandhi: K N Govindacharya

PATNA: Former BJP ideologue K N Govindacharya today said Congress leader Digvijay Singh would prove to be a better Prime Minister than Amethi MP Rahul Gandhi, though the issue remained an internal matter of the Congress.

"Digvijay Singh will be far better as PM than Rahul Gandhi. Singh has been minister in the union government and Chief Minister of a big state and thus he has a vast administrative experience," Govindacharya told reporters here.

"However, whether Rahul would become a Prime Minister or not is an internal affair of the Congress," the Rashtriya Swabhiman Andolan founder added.

About other political leaders having PM potential, Gonvidacharya said people such as JD-U chief Sharad Yadav, Janata Dal president Dr Subrahmanyam Swamy and BJP leader Sushma Swaraj can be better PM than Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar or his Gujarat counterpart Narendra Modi.
