Sharad Pawar formula for Opposition PMship |
At a party meeting, Sharad Pawar said the Opposition party bagging the maximum number of seats after the 2019 Lok Sabha polls could claim the top post. This is important, and puts to rest the imagination of different opposion leaders to claim prime ministership after the forthcoming polls. The 78-year-old also expressed happiness over Congress chief Rahul Gandhi’s recent remarks that he was not driven by prime ministerial ambitions. Earlier too, Opposition parties like RJD, SP and BSP have hinted that they were uncomfortable with Gandhi being projected as the PM face. RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav said has that a lot of people were capable of becoming PM, while Akhilesh Yadav has claimed the country would see a new prime minister after 2019 elections. The BSP has hinted that Mayawati could be the united Opposition PM nominee, while TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee, who has met several opposition leaders in the past few months, has sent the vibes that she was also a strong contender. After two round of meetings, the Maharashtra Congress-NCP state leadership has reportedly agreed to forge an electoral alliance for 2019 Lok Sabha and Assembly elections.
