Friends indeed?

In the past, Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari had administered Prasar Bharati CEO Jawahar Sircar a comprehensive snub by telling journalists he did not know who Sircar was. Now, his relationship with Sircar appears to have taken a U-turn. At an event recently, Sircar and Tewari, both of whom were fairly public about the fact that they did not see eye to eye on various issues, seem to have patched up. Sircar even complimented Tewari, saying he has rarely seen a minister as articulate and bright. Tewari will go a long way, Sircar added. Tewari seemed to have enjoyed the accolades and clapped the loudest when Sircar finished speaking. A sign that elections are nearing and each needs the other, perhaps?
