People are definitely losing confidence in Parliament and parliamentary system because we are not being able to reflect the problems of the masses,” he said. “There is a decline…In such a situation whoever comes as the President must be capable of enjoying the confidence of the people. And confidence can only come if the man is known for his committment, integrity, honesty and love for the country. Not for himself,” Dasgupta said. PTI
