Lies, lies and more lies! This is what defines Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s ‘rare’ Press conference held last Friday.
Lies, lies and more lies! This is what defines Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s ‘rare’ Press conference held last Friday.
This was Manmohan’s third Press conference in his nine-and-half years long tenure where he declared that he won’t seek third term and would transfer the baton to a new person after the general election.
In any case, it is not like he has a choice. The next Prime Minister however, will not be from the UPA. He will be from the BJP-led NDA as the nation is waiting to vote out the corrupt Congress.
But the Prime Minister is sanguine about another term for the UPA. “I have full confidence that the next Prime Minister will be from the UPA,” he said.
Rampant corruption is the most striking features of UPA’s governance. Manmohan Singh’s Government has gifted the country a series of scams ranging from the 2G spectrum scam to the Commonwealth Games loot, from Railgate to Coalgate and from Steelgate to Choppergate.
