Politics - It is difficult art and task.

Extra cleverness is required when own men err / do mistakes.
No doubt he is a good and honest leader.

Talking in press conference is against any ethics of political party.
He should not have done the press conference against own men.
He should have gone to senior /High command where he is fully a recognized figure.

Politics needs extra cleverness. Just honesty alone does not work in politics and needs common sense of protecting party image.

God help the party.

Yusuff Ali said "obviously a very proud and humbling moment in my life. This is a great honour not only for me but for the entire Indian expat community and I sincerely thank the HM the King Salman, HRH Crown Prince Mohamed bin Salman and the government of Saudi Arabia."
