New Delhi, April 4: Amid suspense over who would be the Congress' next Prime Ministerial candidate, Rahul Gandhi today dubbed as “irrelevant” and “all smoke” the debate on the issue as he insisted that no individual can fix all the complex problems of the nation.




Gandhi, who has been reluctant to join the government, described his advent into politics as “an accident of fate” and “DNA” linkage with a particular family.
 
“I got press guys asking when you are getting married.  Somebody else saying, boss, when are you going to be the Prime Minister. Somebody saying, no your are not going to be PM, somebody say may be you will be PM. There is good possibility.

“These are irrelevant questions. It's all smoke,” the 42-year-old Congress Vice President said, adding the only relevant question is how to give voice to one billion people that would solve all problems.

“It is like the American polling charts. 47.3 per cent of possibility that he might be Prime Minister,” he said addressing the Annual General Body meeting of Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) here.

Gandhi told the industy leaders that he is “not a hard-nosed politician” and does not want to become one.
