The BJP on Tuesday hit out at the Congress over its accusations against Prime Minister Narendra Modi about “omitting” certain details about his property in his affidavits, saying there was bankruptcy of issues in the opposition parties and the number of the amalgamated plot is different from the separate individual numbers.
The party accused the Congress of falsehoods and said therewas a limit to trivialisation.
“The caravan of falsehood moves on. There is abankruptcy of issues in the Congress party. Today’s election issue was that thenumber of plot owned by the PM (his only asset) is now shown differentlynumbered from what was shown earlier.
“Similar charge is made against the Finance Minister.There is a limit to trivialisation. Four plots purchased by four differentpersons were amalgamated into one on 25.4.2008. Obviously, the number of theamalgamated plot is different from the separate individual numbers,” theparty said in tweets.
Congress spokesperson Pawan Khera had alleged at a pressconference here that Modi was “hiding something” about a property inGandhinagar.
Khera said the Election Commission should take”thorough cognizance of the seemingly deliberate omissions” in thePrime Minister’s affidavits and take appropriate action.
BJP leaders said that “false and misleading”allegations were being levelled against Modi who was working on the principleof “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas” and noted that he had donated Rs 21lakh from his personal savings to the corpus fund for the welfare of sanitationworkers of Kumbh Mela.
