Former Lok Sabha Speaker P A Sangma today said Narendra Modi had prime ministerial material, but he would have to test his acceptance in non-Hindi speaking belts.
"People want development and good governance and he has proved these (in Gujarat)," Sangma said. On 2002 riots, Sangma said, "that took place when he was just two months as chief minister. After that he has won so many elections from Muslim dominated areas." He said Modi was yet to tour the length and breadth of the country. "The moment he goes campaigning all over the country, then we'll know his position and it will be seen within two months from now," he said.
