The Congress-led UPA government had in the last six and a half years always looked after the welfare of the “aam aadmi (ordinary people)”, he said.

He praised Congress president Sonia Gandhi for her “dynamic” leadership. “Sonia Gandhi has given a new direction to the Congress in the last 12 years,” said Singh.
