Patna,(BiharTimes): Patna Saheb MP Shatrughan Sinha on Monday strongly condemned Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for saying that Narendra Modi as the prime minister would be disastrous.

Talking to the media in Patna he said that the image of Manmohan Singh has greatly been tarnished by Coalgate, Railgate, CWG and other scams. He should first look into his own self before commenting on “Narendra Modi who is our prime ministerial candidate.”

Equating PM’s remarks with Congress president Sonia Gandhi’s “Maut ka saudagar” comment he said that the Congress would lose further support by such utterances.

Bihari Babu said that Sonia Gandhi is an ‘aurat’ (woman) and would have been carried away and said so, but Manmohan Singh is a ‘samajhdar admi’ (sensible person) yet he said so.

His remarks on Sonia Gandhi as an ‘aurat’ is likely to be criticised by women’s right groups
