Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday warned that a victory of the opposition INDIA bloc, will lead to a scramble among top leaders of the alliance for the prime minister’s post amid reports of ‘one year one PM’ formula.
Shah questioned the practicality of the INDIA alliance’s plan to rotate the Prime Minister’s role annually, asking if this is a practical way to run a country.
Speaking at a rally in Jhanharpur Lok Sabha constituency of Bihar, he said, “If this ‘Ghamandia Gathbandhan’ INDI alliance win, then who will be the Prime Minister of the country? Do they have any leaders? Tell me, can they make Lalu the Prime Minister of the country? Can Stalin handle the country? Can Mamata Banerjee handle it? Can you even think about Rahul Baba (as the Prime Minister)? God forbid if a government of this alliance comes, they said they will share the Prime Minister’s post every year – one year Sharad Pawar will be (PM), one year Lalu will be (PM), one year Mamta will be (PM), one year Stalin will be, and if anything is left, Rahul Baba will be (PM). Can the country run like this?”
