Mulayam Singh Yadav declared his support saying that she will handle Indian economy better
After announcing her support to Manmohan Singh for President's post, Mamata Banerjee immediately pitched herself for Prime Minister's post just thrashing the question of Congress Party that who will lead India after making Manmohan Singh as President.
"Searching for a good candidate for President's post is more difficult than searching for Prime Minister. I think while there is most capable and intelligent candidate for this post then why should we go anywhere. Even Mulayamji force me to announce myself as a Prime Minister of India, after thinking about Manmohanji's name," said Mamata Banerjee.
She said "We don't take time to resolve the issues as like UPA government. I believe Manmohanji is the best candidate for President's post of India. Also after 2014 as it is he was going to retire from the post, therefore I thought to give him better opportunity."
While Congress Party is still 'mum' after Mamata didi's announcement, many senior leaders were calculating whether they can push Rahul Baba to PM's post after deciding Manmohanji on President's post. However, they still feel that it would be difficult if Mamata Didi announces her as a PM.
According to sources, Rahul Gandhi with heavy heart asked another Senior Leader "Mera number kab aayega."
For getting a support to PM's post Mamata didi told Mulayam Singh Yadav to head finance ministry while Pranabda will get VRS. Mulayam Singh Yadav is famous for resolving economic issues in a very good manner. He pushed down the inflation sharply after announcing free laptops in Uttar Pradesh.
"There are more problems for Bengalis residing across India than Bengalis residing in Kolokotta," told Mamata didi "Just issuing a bit of money and packages would not solve their problems. I will have to go to top post immediately to resolve their issues."
