The BJP has been in power for more than seven years and is still blaming first prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru for the problems of the people, former prime minister and Congress leader Dr Manmohan Singh said on Thursday in a scathing attack against the Modi-led government.

Targeting the Central government on a host of issues, including the farmers’ agitation, foreign policy, price rise and unemployment, the former prime minister said ahead of the Punjab elections on February 20 that the Congress had never divided the country for political gains or hidden the truth.
