Rajiv Gandhi not a beneficiary in Bofors scam: Natwar Singh

New Delhi, Aug 1 (IBNS): Former Congressman and ex-foreign minister Natwar Singh, whose forthcoming book criticising party president Sonia Gandhi has created a row, said that former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi was not a beneficiary in the Bofors scam.

"It was not her inner voice that prevented her, as she claimed at the time, to take up the PM's post but Rahul Gandhi said he would take every step possible to prevent his mother from becoming PM," Natwar Singh said in an exclusive interview to Karan Thapar on Headlines Today earlier.

Manmohan Sing became the Prime Minister of the country in 2004 after the Congress came to power.

Natwar Singh made the remarks in reference to his forthcoming book "One Life is not enough: An autobiography".
