The Grand Old Party wanted an apology from the PM, and Manmohan said in a statement that he rejected "the innuendos and falsehoods." Dear Mr Jaitlie - thank you for reminding India that our PM never means what he says or says what he means. Today, Jaitley said Modi didn't question or mean to question their commitment to the nation. In fact, the government and the Opposition reached a truce over the issue, thanks to some good old back room diplomacy. But could Rahul Gandhi's tweet - posted with the hashtag #BJPLies - change that?
