| A day after Rahul Gandhi caused political tremors with his denunciation of the ordinance on lawmakers and attack on government, Congress today got into damage control mode hailing Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for convincing the US on the issue of terror.
"Compliment Prime Minister for convincing US and others that LeT is a global terror threat. I hope Pakistan will take a note of that and act decisively," Congress General Secretary Digvijaya Singh commented on micro blogging site Twitter.
His comments came after US President Barack Obama promised to take up with Nawaz Sharif in a "frank" manner the issue of continued Pakistan-based terror directed against India after talks with Dr Singh.
The Congress General Secretary also welcomed Mr Gandhi's attack on the ordinance, saying it has "punctured BJP's double speak".
"Rahul punctured the balloon of BJP's double speak. It (BJP) had agreed to the amendment in an all-party meeting," the Congress leader tweeted.
After a public outburst critical of the government, Mr Gandhi had last night reached out to the Prime Minister, saying that he has the "greatest admiration" for his leadership in extremely difficult circumstances.
Mr Gandhi, who had publicly called the ordinance to protect convicted MPs and MLAs from immediate disqualification as complete nonsense, said he realised that what he felt about the ordinance was not in harmony with the Cabinet's decision and the Core Group's view
