Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde today had a word of advice for the new Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on how to run a coalition government--follow Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's example.
Shinde also said that running a coalition government is a "difficult task" and that those at the helm should choose what they say with care,
"He has got elected as the Chief Minister and Congress has supported from outside. Our policy is very clear that the government should function. But the person at the helm should talk with care," he told reporters, a day after the Aam Aadmi Party(AAP) leader assumed office as Delhi Chief Minister.
"For instance, Dr Manmohan Singh runs a coalition government, it's a very difficult task. That's an example before the country," Shinde added.
