Mamata better leader than many others: MK Narayanan

Trinamool Congress supremo Mamata Banerjee is a better leader than many others, but it cannot be said at this juncture if she would make a good prime minister, former national security advisor M K Narayanan said Tuesday.

Narayanan, also a former governor of West Bengal, said he had spent a lifetime in intelligence and had seen almost all leaders since Independence and she is "better suited among others as she is a listener at least to some.... She is a difficult person with some remarkable qualities."
To a question by BCC president Sitaram Sharma, he said, "It is a difficult question to answer. Unless a person slips into the shoe of any role, it cannot be judged."
