Guwahati, Sept 28 : Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader L. K. Advani on Sunday accused Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh of being the "most incompetent" premier and "devaluing" his office.

He also said that Manmohan do not take any decision without consulting Congress chief Sonia Gandhi.

Advani, while addressing a Vijay Sangkalpa Samavesh here today, said: "Manmohan Singh, when not a politician, was held in high esteem. But today compared with the past 14 prime ministers of our country, he is the most incompetent."

"No decision is taken without consent from 10 Janpath (residence of United Progressive Alliance (UPA) chairperson Sonia Gandhi in Delhi)," said Advani, and added, "Manmohan Singh has devalued the office of the Prime Minister."

The BJP leader said that after four and half years of UPA rule, only the rich were getting richer while the common man was troubled by price rise and insurgency.
