Singer-turned-politician
Babul
Supriyo,
who
is
about
to
contest
in
the
coming
election
from
Asansol
for
a
Lok
Sabha
seat
in
West
Bengal,
slammed
Congress
vice
president
Rahul
Gandhi
by
saying
that
Rahul
is
not
fit
for
politics.
He
also
mentioned
that
country
needs
a
CEO
(chief
executive
officer)
like
Modi
who
can
effectively
run
it.
It
should
be
noted
that
he
is
contesting
on
a
BJP
ticket.
BJP
is
the
assumed
arch
rival
of
the
Congress
party
and
Babul's
opinion
could
be
influenced
by
his
party.
Supriyo,
who
lend
his
voice
to
many
foot
tapping
Bollywood
songs,
urged
the
voters
to
bring
a
single
party
to
power
as
alliance
politics
is
the
culprit
behind
our
country's
present
condition.
Babul
said,
"Alliance
politics
has
destroyed
the
country.
My
first
appeal
to
voters
is
to
bring
one
party
in
power.
Dynasty
politics
exists
in
India,
but
I
don't
think
Rahul
Gandhi
is
fit
for
the
job.
Whatever
he
says
becomes
a
joke.
I
have
always
been
against
pushing
someone
who
is
not
fit
for
the
role." Only
god
knows
the
consequences
of
the
bold
comments
of
Babul
Supriyo.
Babul
seemed
disillusioned
with
the
current
government
ruling
India,
hence
added,
"We
have
seen
how
Congress
denied
Pranab
Mukherjee
the
prime
minister's
chair.
The
party
would
have
some
credibility
if
senior
leaders
like
Kapil
Sibal
or
P.
Chidambaram
were
pushed
for
the
job."
But
Babul
was
all
praise
for
Narendra
Modi,
BJP's
prime
ministerial
candidate.
He
added,
" The
country
needs
a
CEO
(chief
executive
officer)
like
Modi
who
can
efficiently
run
it.
He
has
created
wonders
in
Gujarat
and
I
believe
the
Gujarat
model
of
development
should
be
followed
in
the
rest
of
the
country."
