Mamata Banerjee, Mayawati or Chandrababu Naidu better PM options than Rahul: NCP chief Sharad Pawar

 Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar has junked the idea of Congress chief Rahul Gandhi as the prime ministerial candidate of the opposition in the Lok Sabha election 2019 which is currently underway.

The 78-year-old political veteran thinks that West Bengal chief minister (CM) and Trinamool Congress supremo Mamata Banerjee, Andhra Pradesh CM and TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu and Bahujan Samaj Party president Mayawati are better contenders for the top post than Rahul. “Mamata, Maya, or Naidu are better options as the PM candidate of non-NDA parties than Congress' Rahul,” Pawar told Zee News in an exclusive interview.
