Opposition should seek removal of PM: Swamy

By Our Special Correspondent

CHENNAI Apr. 22. The Janata Party president, Subramanian Swamy, today urged the Opposition parties to demand the resignation of the Prime Minister, Atal Behari Vajpayee, rather than that of the Gujarat Chief Minister, Narendra Modi.

In a statement, he said the Prime Minister bore the ultimate responsibility for the safety of minorities in India. Mr. Vajpayee had ``turned out to be India's most incompetent Prime Minister who could not take a stand on any issue.''

Mr. Vajpayee had ``changed his stand on every issue from the Indian Airlines plane hijacking to giving refuge to the LTTE,'' Dr. Swamy said.
