Waheguru ji ka Khalsa!

Waheguri ji ki Fateh!!

💐💐💐

Heartfelt Tributes!!

Some points to Remember: 

1) It was under Manmohan Singh that a declared terrorist was given a certificate of an innocent victim (Ishrat). It was for the first time, that terrorists were embraced rather than being gunned down. 

2) It was under Manmohan Singh that "Hindu Terror" was bandied about, besmirching the oldest civilisation in the world 

3) It was under Manmohan Singh that the country's own IB was hounded to frame one distinguished officer (Rajendra Kumar) who had taken out a terrorist. Such was the despicable nature of this effort that then IB Chief ( Asif Ibrahim) refused to meet Manmohan Singh for a month till ultimately Dr. Singh backed down. 

4) It was under Manmohan Singh that China gobbled up Indian territory for the first time since 1962 and he did nothing.

5) It was under Manmohan Singh that Pakistan attacked India repeatedly and with impunity and India did nothing. The peak of that pusillanimity was the 26/11 attacks. 

6) It was under Manmohan Singh that loot and plunder became an official government policy and the scams perpetrated during those 10 years still keep surfacing. 

7) It was Manmohan Singh who became the first and the only PM to meet a known and confessed terrorist in his office. (Yasin Malik). 

However, having said all this, in a way we should be thankful to Manmohan Singh in one way. It was the absolute depths to which he plunged India that paved the way for a civilisational awakening in 2014 and the mandates since then. 

Om Shanti.
