Don't have any rivals, they are my competitors: PM Modi on his opponents

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said he doesn't have any rivals in the electoral battle for the 2019 Lok Sabha election. In an exclusive interview to India Today Group in Varanasi, PM Narendra Modi said he does not consider any of his opponents as his rivals.

"I don't have any rivals. They are my competitors," PM Modi said.

When asked about his views on his rivals leaving the field in Varanasi and there being no strong contender fielded against him, PM Narendra Modi said: "A party cannot nominate two-three candidates. Only one representative can be there from every party)."
