Modi meets Manmohan Singh

New Delhi, May 27 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi met former PM Manmohan Singh in New Delhi on Wednesday.

The meeting took place at 7 RCR here.

Modi said he had a 'great meeting' with Singh.

He also shared a picture of the meeting on his Twitter page.

Modi tweeted: "Very happy to meet Dr. Manmohan Singh ji & welcome him back to 7RCR. We had a great meeting."

The PMO India tweeted a picture of Modi meeting Singh.

"Dr. Manmohan Singh & Shri @narendramodi met at 7RCR a short while ago," PMO India tweeted.

Singh had served the country as the Prime Minister for two terms.

A day after former TRAI chairman Pradip Baijal accused Manmohan Singh of permissiveness in the 2G scam, the former Prime Minister on Wednesday defended himself saying he never used  his office to enrich himself or his family.

Singh, who has been under intense attacks from the BJP on issues relating to alleged corruption, including 2G and coal block allocation scams during the UPA regime also launched a frontal attack against the ruling party, saying it was harping on corruption to divert people's attention to non-issues.

“As far as I am concerned, I can say in all humility that I have not used my public office to enrich myself, to enrich my family or my friends. And still the BJP government keeps on harping on this theme of corruption because it wants to distract the attention of the people to non-issues,” he said while speaking at a function.

On Tuesday,Pradip Baijal,  former chief of Telecom Regulatory Authority (TRAI) said  Singh had asked him not to obstruct policies that were being implemented to allow a massive scam in the allocation of mobile network licenses in 2009.
