However, the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government was facing no threat and continued to enjoy majority, Kumar said. “The UPA government enjoys majority on the floor of the house and we will complete our full term of five years. There is no threat to the stability of the government. Arithmetic is on the side of the UPA,” Kumar said. IANS
