BJP did 'havans' to pray for my Death: Manmohan Singh

It seems Indian politics is stooping to another low. As per Indian TV channels report, India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has accused that opposition party's BJP leaders had wished death for him because of his resolve to sign the nuclear deal. He has said this in an interview to the India Today news magazine.

Speaking on the attitude of Opposition party, the Prime Minister said: "It requires a big leap in approach and the attitude of the BJP is disappointing. They didn’t even believe I would last as the Prime Minister and some leaders even did havans(special spiritual prayers) that I should die on a certain day."

"But I have faith on higher force. I believe it was my destiny to be PM. I have the courage of conviction," he said.

The revelation came in the context of remarks made by NDA convenor George Fernandes against Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, in which he reportedly said if it was China, they would have shot him in the head by a bullet.
