Jaipur: Congress leader Digvijay Singh on Saturday defended Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for calling his Pakistani counterpart Yusuf Raza Gilani "a man of peace".
"As far as Prime Minister`s statement is concerned, I think that liberal democratic forces in Pakistan have to be strengthened because of influence of the ISI in the army is something which has led to terrorism." "I think what the Prime Minister has said is fully justified that liberal democratic forces in India and Pakistan must come together to fight fundamentalist forces in both the countries," he said. PTI
