Sonia Gandhi claimed that Modi lost the mandate he sought and criticized him for not taking «responsibility for failure.»
«The Prime Minister who sought the mandate solely in his name to the exclusion of both his party and its allies has suffered a political and worse, a moral defeat. In reality, he has lost the mandate he sought and thereby lost the right to leadership as well,» Sonia Gandhi said while addressing the extended CWC meeting on Saturday.
«Yet, far from taking responsibility for failure, he intends to get himself sworn in again. We do not expect him to change the substance and style of his governance, nor take cognizance of the will of the people,» she added.
