Perform or perish: Sonia
May 29th, 2009 | By Elections2009 | Category: Off-trackNew Delhi: Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Thursday virtually put the newly inducted party Ministers on notice, suggesting that they “perform or perish.”
“Some of those who are inside can make way for others,” Ms. Gandhi said after the swearing-in of Ministers at the Rashtrapati Bhavan here. She was responding to a question whether the Congress was ruling out any reshuffle and change, now that most of the members had been sworn in in one go.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, at a recent meeting of the Congress MPs, said people expected a more efficient government and “business as usual” would not do. — PTI
