Social activist Anna Hazare on Friday said that both Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi and Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi are 'unacceptable' and 'unfit' to become the Prime Minister of India. .
"Both Modi and Rahul Gandhi are unacceptable to me for prime ministership as both are not fit to take over the dignified and respected post," Anna Hazare told media here today.
Taking a dig at Narendra Modi, Hazare questioned the Gujarat chief minister for not bringing Lokayukta bill in his state which would bring an end to corruption in the state.
Hazare further said that Rahul Gandhi was also not the right candidate for the post of Prime Minister.
Referring to the figures given by Planning Commission on poverty, Hazare said that those sitting in air-conditioned offices cannot rightly evaluate poverty. "Rs 33 cannot provide meal to one mouth," he added. (ANI)
The Planning Commission said in its report on July 23, that the poverty ratio in India has declined to 21.9 percent in 2011-12 from 37.2 percent in 2004-05 on account of increase in per capita consumption.
This would mean that the persons whose consumption of goods and services exceed Rs 33.33 in cities and Rs 27.20 per capita per day in villages are not poor.
