Praan jayea, magarr vaachan nahi jayea, as they say in colloqial Bhojpuri, but this Gowda cretin, has no honor, so going back on his 'word' is normal business - double-crossing and double-dealing is his MO (modus operandi). So knows, tomorrow he will say something different like "we are in the process of reconsidering our futeur alignment partners..."
