New Delhi, June 26 - Terming it 'sad' that the Congress has become the 'fiefdom of a single family', Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader L.K. Advani Sunday said the office of prime minister is 'reserved' for a 'nominee' or a member of the Nehru-Gandhi family.
'Prime ministership of a great democracy like India should not be allowed to become the jagirdari of a family,' Advani said in his blog.
'Sadly, the Congress today has become the fiefdom of a single family. The office of prime minister is reserved either for the nominee or a member of the Nehru family,' he added.
'India is paying a heavy price because of a prime minister nominated by the Congress president,' he added.
'And now the demand has arisen from within the Congress Party that a scion of the Nehru family should take over the prime ministership,' Advani, a former deputy prime minister, said.
He was referring to voices in the Congress once again saying that Congress chief Sonia Gandhi's son Rahul Gandhi fits the bill as the next prime minister of India.'Our country cannot afford continuation of the misrule that UPA represents,' he added.
