Shahkot: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is a novice in public life and is hardly any match to BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal said today.
The country's Prime Minister should be a "learned personality with varied administrative and public experience", he told reporters here.
"It is a fact that Rahul Gandhi lacks these. He is a novice in public life," Badal said after inaugurating an administrative complex.
It is not possible for such a person to shoulder the huge responsibility of serving the nation, he said.
"Modi has proved his mettle time and again as an able administrator by taking the state of Gujarat on the path to progress," Badal said.
