Ghost of Gujarat riots haunting Modi, says Congress
New Delhi: Stung by Narendra Modi's charge that UPA was misusing CBI to target political opponents, Congress today had a dig at the BJP's prime ministerial candidate saying it showed the ghost of the 2002
He said Modi “neither reads nor comprehends” and took a jibe at the Gujarat Chief Minister over the cold vibes shared between him and his party patriarch L K Advani at Bhopal rally yesterday.
“The senior leader of his very own party, whose feet he was touching, had turned away his head four five times from him. The same leader had also written a letter that BJP originally conceived by them no longer exists,” Babbar said.
In his resignation letter to party President Rajnath Singh who had announced Modi's appointment as Chairman of BJP's election campaign committee in June, Advani had rued that BJP was no longer the “same idealistic party” created by Shyama Prasad Mookerjee, Deendayal Upadhyaya, Nanaji Deshmukh and Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
Babbar said perhaps Modi “does not have knowledge” and his party leaders have not taught him even the language.
