New Delhi, November 14: Describing himself as “aam aadmi”, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh says he has reached the top post because of his education which plays an important role in moulding one’s life.
“I am an aam aadmi (common man). If I can become the Prime Minister, then so can you. I came from a very ordinary, lower-middle class family. It is because of my education that I am what I am.
“So I think education has played a very important role in making me what I am,” the economist-turned-Prime Minister said during a talk organised by CNN-IBN with a group of children at his residence on the occasion of Children’s Day.
He was asked how an aam aadmi can become a Prime Minister.
Singh was dismissive of the opposition calling him a “weak” Prime Minister.
“It does not make much of a difference to me.
