Question:“Mr Gandhi, can a Muslim ever become Prime Minister of India?"
Answer: “It is not about what religion or community you come from,” Rahul replied, “it is what you bring to the table, what capability you have.”
Question: “Muslims have come a long way after Independence. Sir, how long will it take for India to have its first Muslim Prime Minister?”
Answer:“Today, Manmohan Singh is not the Prime Minister of India because he is a Sikh. He is the Prime Minister because he is the most capable person to do the job. And let me tell you, when you do have a Muslim Pri-me Minister, he will be a Prime Minister because he is the most capable person.”
This is the best conversation in between an Indian politician and 'aam janata'. Question were raised by Aligarh Muslim Unversity students and Mr. Rahul Gandhi was there to answer them. I don't know how much honest he is about his answer but I am sure that it's the smartest answer and the right vision that India needs desperately at this time.This should be true not only for Prime ministership but also for each and every post in India. When we will learn to respect the eligibility our country wil be happiest on this planet.
