Manmohan Singh surprised the Indian media at a press conference in Washington with his sharp replies. When asked about his two-minute tete-a-tete with Pakistan Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani on the sidelines of the summit, Manmohan Singh could not resist a stab of sarcasm. “I complimented the prime minister on the passage of the constitution amendment bill which makes the prime minister a more powerful personality in Pakistan’s political system,” quipped a smiling Manmohan Singh.
