MP CM agrees with Sushma's words on Sonia

Bhopal, Sep 26 (UNI) Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan today said he concurred with senior BJP leader and former Union Minister Sushma Swaraj's statement that a person of foreign origin should not occupy the post of Prime Minister.

''Such a person will not be acceptable for that august chair,'' he told UNI sans taking any leader's name.

In an interaction with the press during the recently-concluded three-day meeting of the BJP's National Executive here, Ms Swaraj again raised the issue and maintained that she was adamant over her stance that United Progressive Alliance Chairperson and Congress President Sonia Gandhi should not become the Prime Minister. She would oppose ''tooth and nail'' any attempt to install Ms Gandhi as the PM.
