NCP President Sharad Pawar speaks to NDTV on why Sonia Gandhi was not willing to make him Prime Minister. He said he was thrown out of the party for wanting Constitutional Amendment to bar foreign born to be Prime Minister and that his position still remains the same. "If Parliament agrees, I will be the happiest person (to support such amendment)...it's not only mine, it's the view of lakhs and lakhs of people in this country," he said. He called Prime Minister Modi a "workaholic" and a "loner". "I think Mr Narendra Modi is lacking a capable team," he said.
