New Delhi: Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who attended his first press conference in five years on Friday, didn’t take a single question. He passed on the one question addressed to him to BJP president Amit Shah, calling himself a “disciplined soldier” of the party.
“No, no, not me. We don’t speak in front of the president,” the Prime Minister told a reporter at the press meet held just before the end of the national election campaign.
In his opening remarks – the only time he spoke – PM Modi said that a government that had completed a five-year term would return with full majority after the election.
