Manmohan Singh vehemently criticized BJP Prime minister candidate for calling him the weakest prime minister ever in India. Manmohan Singh in his first public speech, since his heart operation, why he is prime minister material for years to come through his speech that targetted BJP, CPM and the Varun Gandhi.
Manmohan Singh said that Advani, in his tenure as a Home Minister, failed to control western Gujarat riots and could not prevent military attacks on Parliament and Red Fort.
This is the verbatim of Manmohan Singh's speech ""When Advani was the Home Minister of the country, the attack on parliament took place. His government mobilized Indian troops for 12 months without getting any result, they rolled them back with thousands and thousands of crores of loss. Parliament was attacked, Lal Qila (Red Fort) was attacked, Indian Airlines plane was hijacked and the terrorists were rewarded by being made the honoured guests. This is the record of Advani. He was the home minister, who presided over the massacre that took place in Gujarat. The country must reflect whether this is a person who is 'fit' to hold the office of the Prime Minister. Advani's only achievement is the razing of the Babri Masjid.
Manmohan Singh also lashed out at Varun Gandhi's inflammatory speech""The BJP is dividing our people on the basis of the communal lines and the most recent shameful instance of this is their endorsement of the line that its young leader Varun Gandhi has taken with regard to his speeches that he made in Pilibhit"
Rubbishing allegation by NDA that the UPA govt bought economy to its knees, Manmohan Singh pointed out that despite the global economic melt-down, India was the second fastest growing economy.
