PM personally responsible for govt's failures: BJP

April 22, 2013 17:03

The BJP today sharpened its attack on Prime Minister Manmohan Singh with party leader Yashwant Sinha holding him "personally responsible" for "failure" of his government on all important issues, including excesses against women in Delhi.

"Why pick up one Minister or one Chairman of a Committee, I hold the Prime Minister personally responsible for all that is happening in Delhi in terms of excesses against women and failure on all important issues," senior party leader Yashwant Sinha said.

He was asked to comment on the alleged role of Law Minister Ashwani Kumar in the coal allocation case probe. "Why blame the Law Minister. The Prime Minister's Office intervened. There are e-mails between the PMO and the CBI," Sinha said.
