I’m going to be PM of India in 2019: Omar

JAMMU, Aug 31: Former Chief Minister Omar Abdullah surely knows the art of cracking jokes. On Monday soon after Bobby Jindal announced, “I am going to be the Republican nominee for 2016 US Presidential Polls”, Omar lost no time and immediately tweeted, “And I'm going to be PM of India in 2019. Kehne main kya harj hai”.
Omar's comment invited lot of interesting responses from his followers. Some wished him luck and others said they would surely like to see him occupy the hot seat. Few sycophants said India would be a better place to live in under your able leadership while another follower said BJP made a wrong choice you would have been a better option.
Omar must have been relishing the responses and the fan mail he is able to generate even after staying out of power.
Later in the day as rumour mills were circulating news reports of ill health of the Chief Minister Mufti Mohammed Sayeed, Omar prayed for long life and good health for him (Mufti).
“Rumours about Mufti Sb's ill health are rife. I hope they are wrong & pray to Allah for his long life & good health. Allah shafa bakshay".
