Calls for Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s resignation have become so frequent that they have lost their relevance, according to Coal Minister Sriprakash Jaiswal. Asked by reporters whether the prime minister should resign following the Comptroller and Auditor General’s report, he replied rather wearily, “The PM has been asked to resign 30 times in the past three years. This is part of cheap politics.” Note that he did not provide an unequivocal “no” as an answer.
