India minister Gadkari’s PM job offer claim fuels talk about Modi’s successor
“I asked them, ‘Why do you want me to be the PM, and why should I not be with the PM [Modi]?’ So, becoming prime minister is not my ambition,” Gadkari said, without revealing who the offer came from.
His remarks come ahead of four crucial state elections, in which the ruling BJP faces uphill battles following the loss of its outright majority in the last national elections.
