Sir — Union Minister for Finance P Chidambaram has reportedly said that Mr Narendra Modi’s knowledge of economics can be accommodated on the back of a postage stamp.

However contentious that statement may be, the same can be said of Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi before they became Prime Ministers. Also, what about Mr Rahul Gandhi’s knowledge of economicsIJ Congress leaders are forsaking logic and reason to condemn Mr Modi, losing whatever little credibility they had left.
