Corruption Peaking Under PM Modi, Alleges Manmohan Singh

IANS, 21 Nov, 2018 11:58 AM
    Former prime minister Manmohan Singh on Wednesday said that demonetisation was a monumental failure and the Modi government will never accept this.
     
     
    Speaking at an event in Indore, he said: “Demonetisation did not achieve any of the objectives , which were stated by the government,” adding that “No black money was recovered.”
     
     
    He alleged that the corruption has peaked under Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
     
     
    “Careful, well-thought-out and calibrated efforts to weaken the democracy in Modi regime; rule of law under attack, credibility of institutions like Parliament and CBI are being systematically denigrated, said  Manmohan Singh.  
     
     
    He said, "The next Congress government will simplify the Goods  and Services Tax (GST) but demonetisation is a done act. Now people should take every step to get rid of a government, which took them to this disastrous path."
