There are better candidates for PM than Rahul, Modi: Ramachandra Guha: "Karan Thapar: Hello and welcome to Devil's Advocate. How impressive was Rahul Gandhi's speech to the Confederation of Indian Industry? That's the key question I should raise today with one of India's most highly regarded, modern historian Ramachandra Guha. Ramachandra Guha, in January you described Rahul Gandhi as a well intentioned debutant. In December, you said he was completely mediocre with no original ideas and you suggested that he should find another profession. After his speech on Thursday, have you changed your mind or reconfirmed your opinion?
Ramachandra Guha: Well I really haven't changed my mind. But I would now only stress on the well intentioned. He scales across in his speech as a charming likeable young man, more so in the Q&A. Because a speech, as you know Karan, is prepared by his advisor, not by him. So, he came across as a likeable sincere chap, but confused. I was impressed by how well intentioned he is. I still don't think he is capable of running this country. I don't think he is particularly a hard working or focused politician. But he certainly came across likeable in a way that certainly few politicians do.
