Senior Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar claimed that had ex-President Pranab Mukherjee been the country's PM in place of Dr Manmohan Singh, Congress' defeat in the 2014 polls wouldn't have been so "humiliating". "A party that had been at 414 in December 1984 [fell to] 44 seats in 2014. That is because there was no governance in 2013," he said.
