New Delhi: The illegal snooping row intensified today with the BJP rejecting Congress demand for a probe by a sitting Supreme Court judge and the ruling party accusing Narendra Modi of heading a “fascist” set up in Gujarat under which a woman was allegedly ordered to be stalked.
BJP said Congress has no authority to ask for a probe as the woman has not lodged any complaint in the matter.
Questioning the authenticity of the taped conversation allegedly between former Gujarat State Home Minister Amit Shah and IPS officer G L Singhal, BJP Deputy Leader in Rajya Sabha Ravi Shankar Prasad said even Cobrapost- which made the audio CD public- has not vouched for it.
“Congress talk of a probe is all non-sense. Law and Order is a state subject. Has the woman complained about the matter? Her father has issued a statement saying he had asked for security for her. With what authority is the Congress and the Government of India asking for a probe? Prasad said.
