Congress, BJP Clash Over Manmohan Singh’s Last Rites

Deccan Chronicle  

New Delhi: The war of words between the Congress and the BJP escalated on Saturday after former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's last rites were performed at the Nigambodh Ghat instead of a designated memorial site. The Congress party claimed that no news agencies except the Doordarshan were allowed, which only focused on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union home minister Amit Shah, "barely covering Manmohan Singh’s family." Singh deserved dignity, not this shameful spectacle," posted Congress's Pawan Khera on X. Refuting Mr Gandhi's allegations, BJP president J.P. Nadda hit back, saying it is indeed "very unfortunate" that Mr Gandhi and Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge are not refraining from doing politics even on the sad demise of Manmohan Singh. However, on Saturday, after attending former's last rites, Mr Gandhi posted on X, "The great son of Mother India and the first Prime Minister of the Sikh community, Dr. Manmohan Singh Ji, has been totally insulted by the present government by performing his last rites at Nigambodh Ghat.” The Congress leader also wrote about Manmohan Singh’s legacy, describing him as a leader whose policies elevated India to an economic superpower and provided critical support to the underprivileged.
