Obama refers RaGa as "nervous" and "uninformed" in his memoir; Praises Manmohan Singh, Sonia

New Delhi, Nov 13 (UNI) Former United States president Barack Obama, in his memoir titled -- 'A Promised Land' referred Congress leader Rahul Gandhi as someone who is nervous and uninformed and lacks aptitude and passion, while also making a remark on former prime minister Manmohan Singh and INC president Sonia Gandhi.
The former president wrote that Rahul Gandhi and they met at least twice — in 2015 and 2017 — has “a nervous, unformed quality about him, as if he were a student who’d done the coursework and was eager to impress the teacher but deep down lacked either the aptitude or the passion to master the subject”, according to a direct quote in the NYT review.
He writes approvingly of Mr Manmohan Singh, who was Obama’s first state guest at the White House, and former Congress president Sonia Gandhi, "Secretary of Defense Bob Gates and the Indian prime minister Manmohan Singh both come across as having a kind of impassive integrity."
