 'QUATTROCCHI ISSUE IS A DEAD ISSUE': RAHUL 

New Delhi, May 5- "Quattrocchi issue is a dead issue. There is no interest in it". 

This was the reply of AICC(I) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi at the media conference here today to a question from a reporter on CBI removing the Bofors accused Quattrocchi from its 'most wanted' list. 

Rahul Gandhi said he was sure that the UPA would form the next government at the Centre. 

Confident that the Congress would return to power, Rahul claimed the BJP-led NDA was finished on the ground. 

"But in a democracy, if it so happens, we have no choice," he said in reply to a question whether Congress would sit in the opposition. 

Significantly, Rahul gave clear signals of working with the Left parties in the post-poll scenario, saying Congress is always open to post-poll alliances. 

Asked if Congress would support the Left parties, which had supported the UPA for over four years, in forming the government, Rahul Gandhi appeared to be sarcastic when he said "we will consider that if the Left gets 180-190 MPs. We will consider them. I hope they are able to achieve that. If they do, I will be first person to say let us support Left". 

"....on a lot of concepts we agree with the Left like education and health. There is a lot of meeting ground with the Left. There is absolutely no meeting ground with BJP...", he replied.
