Beni Prasad Suggests Manmohan to Retire before 2014 Elections

At a time when Cabinet Minister Salman Khurshid was facing the heat over allegations of financial irregularity levelled against his trust. He found little sympathy from fellow Minister Beni Prasad Verma who refused to take the charges against Khurshid seriously because according to him, 71 lakh rupees was too small an amount to warrant a scam. While speculation was rife about Congress' agenda for the 2014 elections. Beni Prasad Verma insisted that Manmohan Singh should retire to give way for Rahul Gandhi.
