October 28th, 2010 - 12:13 am ICT by IANS
New Delhi, Oct 27 (IANS) Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav has spoken out in his nonchalant style that his cricketer son Tejaswi Yadav is a born politician and much better than Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi.
A politician for almost four decades, Lalu Yadav was speaking on the state of political affairs in Bihar.
“I think Sonia (Gandhi’s) ji’s time is up. She has given most of her work to her yuvraj (son) Rahul. But then again, wherever Rahul has campaigned and stood for a seat, he has lost,” Lalu told Live India in an interview.
Asked about his heir apparent Tejaswi, he said: “Tejaswi is a born politician. He is much better than Rahul.”
