Uttar Pradesh minister Gulab Devi on Wednesday said PM Narendra Modi is like an incarnation of god and he can remain in his post as long as he wishes.
"Modiji is like an avatar. He is a person of extraordinary talent. No one can compete with them. If he wishes, he can remain the prime minister till he is alive," the Chandausi MLA told reporters after a programme here.
When asked why some opposition leaders are saying that a person from a minority community should be made the prime minister, Devi said, "Nothing happens by speculation. He is such an extraordinary personality. God has sent him as his representative." The minister said Prime Minister Modi makes people do whatever he wishes. "See, the entire country follows his words. What can be a greater acceptance than this," said the minister.
