&lt;br /&gt;
In a concerted strategy to hit at PM Manmohan Singh, just days after it leveled charges of corruption against top Cabinet ministers, Team Anna member Prashant Bhushan said the PM was like &#039;Shikhandi&#039; and was being used by Congress as a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhushan on Monday slammed Singh for defending the UPA government on corruption charges. &amp;quot;The Congress is using the PM as a shield like &#039;Shikhandi&#039;. They say he is clean, so his Cabinet must be clean. Why is the PM allowing himself to be used like &#039;Shikhandi&#039; in this manner,&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shikhandi is a character from the epic Mahabharata. Legend has it that Arjuna hid behind Shikhandi and fatally attacked Bhishma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhushan&#039;s statement was met by muted criticism from BJP though RJD chief Lalu Prasad defended the PM and criticized Team Anna for indulging in disrespectful comments. &amp;quot;The PM is not only a PM but a leader and such kind of comments from Prashant Bhushan are disrespectful to a great leader who has a clean record,&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
BJP asked Team Anna to exercise control over its language while criticizing the PM, saying use of intemperate words against somebody holding the top post was not acceptable. The party however added that the issues being raised by the activists were important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Any use of improper words against the prime minister is not acceptable. Members of Team Anna will have to exercise control over their language,&amp;quot; BJP spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy said. At the same time, the opposition said the government needed to pay attention to the issues being raised by Team Anna and take appropriate steps to deal with them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Congress too jumped in to defend Singh. Pointing out that members of Anna Hazare&#039;s team were themselves trading charges of irregularities against each other, minister of state V Narayansamy said, &amp;quot;They have no locus standi to question the integrity of the PM.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To a question over Bhushan&#039;s statement, Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari said, &amp;quot;If anybody has used the sort of language for the office or person of the PM, we condemn the same in the strongest possible words... To comment on the personality of the prime minister is condemnable and it would be appropriate if people in public life behave in a decent and civilized manner.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;

They say he is clean, so his Cabinet must be clean. Why is the PM allowing himself to be used like &#039;Shikhandi&#039; in this manner,&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shikhandi is a character from the epic Mahabharata. Legend has it that Arjuna hid behind Shikhandi and fatally attacked Bhishma.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bhushan&#039;s statement was met by muted criticism from BJP though RJD chief Lalu Prasad defended the PM and criticized Team Anna for indulging in disrespectful comments. &amp;quot;The PM is not only a PM but a leader and such kind of comments from Prashant Bhushan are disrespectful to a great leader who has a clean record,&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BJP asked Team Anna to exercise control over its language while criticizing the PM, saying use of intemperate words against somebody holding the top post was not acceptable. The party however added that the issues being raised by the activists were important.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;quot;Any use of improper words against the prime minister is not acceptable. Members of Team Anna will have to exercise control over their language,&amp;quot; BJP spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy said. At the same time, the opposition said the government needed to pay attention to the issues being raised by Team Anna and take appropriate steps to deal with them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congress too jumped in to defend Singh. Pointing out that members of Anna Hazare&#039;s team were themselves trading charges of irregularities against each other, minister of state V Narayansamy said, &amp;quot;They have no locus standi to question the integrity of the PM.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To a question over Bhushan&#039;s statement, Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari said, &amp;quot;If anybody has used the sort of language for the office or person of the PM, we condemn the same in the strongest possible words... To comment on the personality of the prime minister is condemnable and it would be appropriate if people in public life behave in a decent and civilized manner.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

In a concerted strategy to hit at PM Manmohan Singh, just days after it leveled charges of corruption against top Cabinet ministers, Team Anna member Prashant Bhushan said the PM was like &#039;Shikhandi&#039; and was being used by Congress as a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhushan on Monday slammed Singh for defending the UPA government on corruption charges. &amp;quot;The Congress is using the PM as a shield like &#039;Shikhandi&#039;.

Shikhandi is a character from the epic Mahabharata. Legend has it that Arjuna hid behind Shikhandi and fatally attacked Bhishma.&lt;br /&gt;

-The Times of India&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a concerted strategy to hit at PM Manmohan Singh, just days after it leveled charges of corruption against top Cabinet ministers, Team Anna member Prashant Bhushan said the PM was like &#039;Shikhandi&#039; and was being used by Congress as a shield.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhushan on Monday slammed Singh for defending the UPA government on corruption charges. &amp;quot;The Congress is using the PM as a shield like &#039;Shikhandi&#039;. They say he is clean, so his Cabinet must be clean. Why is the PM allowing himself to be used like &#039;Shikhandi&#039; in this manner,&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shikhandi is a character from the epic Mahabharata. Legend has it that Arjuna hid behind Shikhandi and fatally attacked Bhishma.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Bhushan&#039;s statement was met by muted criticism from BJP though RJD chief Lalu Prasad defended the PM and criticized Team Anna for indulging in disrespectful comments. &amp;quot;The PM is not only a PM but a leader and such kind of comments from Prashant Bhushan are disrespectful to a great leader who has a clean record,&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
BJP asked Team Anna to exercise control over its language while criticizing the PM, saying use of intemperate words against somebody holding the top post was not acceptable. The party however added that the issues being raised by the activists were important.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Any use of improper words against the prime minister is not acceptable. Members of Team Anna will have to exercise control over their language,&amp;quot; BJP spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy said. At the same time, the opposition said the government needed to pay attention to the issues being raised by Team Anna and take appropriate steps to deal with them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Congress too jumped in to defend Singh. Pointing out that members of Anna Hazare&#039;s team were themselves trading charges of irregularities against each other, minister of state V Narayansamy said, &amp;quot;They have no locus standi to question the integrity of the PM.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To a question over Bhushan&#039;s statement, Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari said, &amp;quot;If anybody has used the sort of language for the office or person of the PM, we condemn the same in the strongest possible words... To comment on the personality of the prime minister is condemnable and it would be appropriate if people in public life behave in a decent and civilized manner.&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;

Prashant Bhushan calls PM shikhandi, says Congress using him as shield

-The Times of India In a concerted strategy to hit at PM Manmohan Singh, just days after it leveled charges of corruption against top Cabinet ministers, Team Anna member Prashant Bhushan said the PM was like 'Shikhandi' and was being used by Congress as a shield. Bhushan on Monday slammed Singh for defending the UPA government on corruption charges. "The Congress is using the PM as a shield like 'Shikhandi'. They say he is clean, so his Cabinet must be clean. Why is the PM allowing himself to be used like 'Shikhandi' in this manner," he said. Shikhandi is a character from the epic Mahabharata. Legend has it that Arjuna hid behind Shikhandi and fatally attacked Bhishma. Bhushan's statement was met by muted criticism from BJP though RJD chief Lalu Prasad defended the PM and criticized Team Anna for indulging in disrespectful comments. "The PM is not only a PM but a leader and such kind of comments from Prashant Bhushan are disrespectful to a great leader who has a clean record," he said. BJP asked Team Anna to exercise control over its language while criticizing the PM, saying use of intemperate words against somebody holding the top post was not acceptable. The party however added that the issues being raised by the activists were important. "Any use of improper words against the prime minister is not acceptable. Members of Team Anna will have to exercise control over their language," BJP spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy said. At the same time, the opposition said the government needed to pay attention to the issues being raised by Team Anna and take appropriate steps to deal with them. Congress too jumped in to defend Singh. Pointing out that members of Anna Hazare's team were themselves trading charges of irregularities against each other, minister of state V Narayansamy said, "They have no locus standi to question the integrity of the PM." To a question over Bhushan's statement, Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari said, "If anybody has used the sort of language for the office or person of the PM, we condemn the same in the strongest possible words... To comment on the personality of the prime minister is condemnable and it would be appropriate if people in public life behave in a decent and civilized manner."
