Narendra Modi claims that he was just 10 years old when he first became Chief Minister of Gujarat
Gujarat Chief Minister and BJP's PM candidate, Narendra Modi told Indian reporters that when he first time became the CM of Gujarat he was hardly 10 years old. However, for the sake of eligibility criteria fixed by Indian legislation he hid the information.
"I was just 10 years old when I became CM of Gujarat. I want to ask UPA Government, when a 10 year old child can transform Gujarat in only 10 years to become one of the most developed states in India what stops the government to take developmental steps," said Narendra Modi, addressing people in Gujarat.
Narendra Modi recently claimed that in NDA's term India saw an average GDP growth of 8.4% while according to Central Statistical Organisation it was around 6%. UPA ministers, including Finance Minister P Chidambaram blasted on him for providing fake data.
However, sticking to his 'Rambo' claims Modi questioned the capabilities of the UPA ministers which have crossed average age of 60-70 years. He said that when such experienced people can't take India on the right path then who would take it. He said that he was CM of Gujarat due to BJP's strategy to promote fresh talent.
Modi said "BJP always seek for hardcore young talent and therefore the party stalwarts like Advaniji, Vajpayeeji came to me asking to lead the state when I was going to school. However, I only asked them whether I would be able to carry out such a big responsibility on my short shoulders. But adamant to their beliefs both of them asked me to carry the responsibility however with only a condition to glue white beard and white hair so that Indian legislatures should not know my real age. But guys I am still less than half of the age of Rahul Gandhi and making such miracles. Think now a 20 year old guy who would be PM of India what kind of wonders he would do."
According to sources, to answer Modi's another Rambo claims Congress Party leaders are thinking to show Rahul Gandhi of 5 years old still making wonders.
