The Narendra Modi government cannot escape the responsibility for “mismanaging” the country by blaming the country’s first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said on Thursday.
In his first video for Punjab voters ahead of the February 20 polls, Dr. Singh stated that one should be mindful of the dignity of the Prime Minister’s Office. All those who used to attack him as being silent and running a weak and corrupt government were now exposed.
Targeting the Centre on a host of issues, including the farmers’ agitation, price rise, unemployment and foreign policy, he accused the BJP of following a “fake nationalism” that followed the policy of divide and rule that was adopted by the British.
