Manmohan offered to step down, wanted Rahul to be PM: Congress leader

国大党透露：曼莫汉·辛格曾提出辞职，希望拉胡尔担任总理

NEW DELHI: Congress spokesperson Shaktisinh Gohil on Wednesday claimed that former party chief Rahul Gandhi could have become the prime minister during UPA-II as the then PM Manmohan Singh was having health issues and had offered to make way for Gandhi.

新德里：国大党发言人沙克提辛·戈希尔周三称，国大党前主席拉胡尔·甘地本可在国大党第二届执政期间成为总理的，因为当时的总理曼莫汉·辛格出现健康问题，并提出让拉胡尔当总理

Gohil added that Gandhi declined the request and urged Singh to complete his term.

戈希尔还说，拉胡尔拒绝了这一提议，并敦促辛格完成其任期。

At an online media briefing, Gohil asserted that the Gandhi family had always shown large-heartedness and never aspired for power.

在一次网络媒体吹风会上，戈希尔称，甘地家族一直表现出宽厚的气度，从不觊觎权力。

He also cited past examples to assert that the Gandhi family never hankered for posts.

他还引用了过去的例子来证明甘地家族从不渴望掌权。

"All workers of the Congress and youth across the country want that Rahul Gandhi should lead us," he said, adding that it is the Congress Working Comitteee and the AICC that has the final say in such matters.

他说:“ 国大党的所有成员全国各地的年轻人都希望拉胡尔•甘地领导我们。”他还说，国大党工作委员会和国大党全印委员会在这类事情上拥有最终发言权。

His statement comes amid a debate over leadership in the Congress triggered by Priyanka Gandhi's remarks that a non-Gandhi should lead the party.

普里扬卡·甘地称，国大党应该由一名非甘地人士领导，这番言论引发了一场关于国大党领导人的辩论。

In the book "India Tomorrow: Conversations with the Next Generation of Political Leaders", Priyanka endorsed her brother Rahul Gandhi's stand on a non-Gandhi president for the Congress, saying there are plenty of people capable of leading the party.

在《未来的印度：与下一代政治领袖的对话》一书中，普里扬卡支持其哥哥拉胡尔•甘地支持非甘地人士担任国大党主席的立场，称有很多人有能力领导国大党。

Though the book was released recently by Oxford University Press, the Congress said Priyanka Gandhi's interview was conducted after Rahul Gandhi stepped down as party president taking responsibility for the 2019 Lok Sabha poll drubbing.

尽管这本书最近才由牛津大学出版社出版，但国大党表示，对普里扬卡·甘地的采访是在拉胡尔·甘地辞去该党主席一职、为2019年人民院选举惨败负责之后进行的。

In the book, which features interviews with young leaders in India, Priyanka told authors Pradeep Chhibber and Harsh Shah, "he (Rahul Gandhi) has said that none of us should be the president of the party and I am in full agreement with him. I think that the party should find its own path also."

这本书讲述了对印度年轻领导人的采访。普里扬卡告诉两位作者Pradeep Chhibber和Harsh Shah：“他(拉胡尔·甘地)说过，我们都不应该成为国大党的党员，我完全同意他的观点。我认为国大党也应该找到自己的道路。”

Sonia Gandhi is the interim president of the party and there has been a growing demand from a section in the Congress for return of Rahul Gandhi as chief.

索尼娅•甘地是国大党的临时主席，而国大党中有一部分人要求拉胡尔•甘地再次担任主席的呼声越来越高。

With the spotlight on the Congress' leadership issue, Priyanka Gandhi's remarks set off speculation about the Gandhi family's role in the party.

由于国大党的领导人问题成为人们关注的焦点，普里扬卡·甘地的言论引发了人们对甘地家族在国大党中所扮演角色的猜测。
