BJP President JP Nadda on Monday responded to former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s comments on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s response to the LAC standoff by saying that Singh belonged to the same party which “helplessly surrendered over 43,000 KM of Indian territory to the Chinese.”
Breaking his silence on the LAC standoff, Manmohan Singh on Monday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi should be mindful of the implications of his words and cannot allow China to use them as a vindication of their position.
Dr. Manmohan Singh belongs to the same party which:
Helplessly surrendered over 43,000 KM of Indian territory to the Chinese!
During the UPA years saw abject strategic and territorial surrender without a fight.
Time and again belittles our forces.

“Helplessly surrendered over 43,000 KM of Indian territory to the Chinese! During the UPA years saw abject strategic and territorial surrender without a fight. Time and again belittles our forces,” Nadda said in a tweet.
One only wishes that Dr. Singh was as worried about Chinese designs when, as PM, he abjectly surrendered hundreds of square kilometres of India’s land to China. He presided over 600 incursions made by China between 2010 to 2013!

“Dr Manmohan Singh can certainly share his wisdom on many subjects but the responsibilities of the office of the Prime Minister isn’t one of them. UPA personified systematic institutional erosion of that office, combined with disrespect for our armed forces. NDA has reversed that!” he added.
Nadda said that though Singh calls for unity, his “strong words on paper fall flat when we see exactly who is vitiating the atmosphere of unity
“Hope Dr. Singh is able to prevail on his own party at least,” he said
Nadda said “sadly, the conduct and actions of top leaders of the Congress party will not make any Indian believe such statements.
“Remember, this is the same INC that always questions and demoralises our armed forces,” he said asking Singh and Congress Party to “Please stop insulting our forces repeatedly, questioning their valour”.
“You did this post the air strikes and surgical strikes.
“Please understand the true meaning of national unity, especially in such times.
“It’s never too late to improve,” the BJP president said.
Nadda said: “India fully trusts and supports Prime Minister Narendra Modi 130 crore Indians have seen his administrative experience in some of the most testing times, particularly how he has always put the well-being of the nation over and above everything else”.
Dear Dr. Singh and Congress Party,
Please stop insulting our forces repeatedly, questioning their valour. You did this post the air strikes and surgical strikes.
Please understand the true meaning of national unity, especially in such times.
It’s never too late to improve.
