मोदी कहते रहे हैं कि मनमोहन सिंह कमजोर प्रधानमंत्री थे. देश के सवालों पर हमेशा चुप रहे. अब मनमोहन सिंह कह रहे हैं कि वो तो हमेशा बोलते थे. चुप तो मोदी हैं जो पत्रकारों के सवालों का सामना ही नहीं किया कभी. हालांकि ये सच है कि पीएम मोदी ने कभी प्रेस कॉन्फ्रेंस नहीं की लेकिन बीजेपी कहती है कि मनमोहन के प्रेस का मतलब बटन दबाना था.
Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has hit back at his successor Narendra Modi over his silent PM jibe, saying that he wasnot the PM who was afraid of talking to the press. Manmohan Singh was speaking at the launch of his book Changing India. Manmohan Singh jibe has come at a time when PM Modi is being criticised and questioned for his reluctance to address press conferences. Ever since Narendra Modi took over the reins of the country from the UPA regime in 2014, he has not addressed a single press conference.
