Dismissing reports that its vice president Rahul Gandhi may replace Manmohan Singh after a rift between the latter and party chief Sonia Gandhi over the dropping of two ministers, the Congress Monday said the prime minister will continue till the 2014 polls.

Following up on Sunday's statement that the dropping of Union Ministers P K Bansal and Ashwani Kumar was a "joint decision" of Gandhi and Singh, the party claimed there "cannot be a better relationship" between any party chief and Prime Minister than the two top leaders have.u00a0
