BJP calls Manmohan Singh’s presence in Rajya Sabha ‘embarrassing’ even as Congress praises him
The ruling BJP and the opposition are divided over the presence of ninety-year-old former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in the Rajya Sabha for several hours on Monday evening during the debate on the Government of National Capital Territory of Delhi (Amendment) Bill, 2023, popularly called Delhi services bill. While the Congress and AAP MPs have lauded Singh's presence, the BJP has called it "embarrassing". Singh, a Rajya Sabha MP from Rajasthan, also took part in the voting.
