Politics, Manmohan Singh says today, is “an art of the possible”. What he perhaps missed out saying is it is also the art of lying.
Otherwise, how do you change your views 360 degrees in less than 24 hours?
On Friday (May 1), Singh had addressed a rally in Howrah, in the suburbs of Kolkata, and launched a Bofors missile of an attack on Buddhadeb Bhattacharya’s Left Front government in West Bengal. He had blamed the Left for all the under-development and joblessness in the state, apart, of course, from criticising them for nearly scuttling his deal with the United States -- aka the “n-deal”.
Today (May 2), he tells CNN-IBN: “We have worked with the Left parties before... I have enjoyed working with the Left.”
Really, Mr Outgoing Prime Minister? Or is it the heat stroke effect?
