[Jaipur]BJP Crashes Congress’s Rafale With KickBacks In Agusta Westland Chopper
On the last day of campaigning in poll-bound Rajasthan, top BJP leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Wednesday seized on the extradition of an alleged middleman in a UPA-era defence deal to corner the Congress, which has made a strong bid to oust the saffron party from power in the state.
The Congress dubbed the claims of Modi and other BJP leaders, including party chief Amit Shah, as a “smear campaign” against its leadership, claiming that they were “latching” on to Christian Michel, the alleged middleman in the Rs 3,600-crore AgustaWestland chopper deal, as the saffron party was staring at defeats in the ongoing state elections.
Michel, a British citizen, was extradited to India on Tuesday night and sent to CBI custody for five days by a Delhi court.
At a press conference in Jaipur, Shah asked the Congress to clear its stand on the issue and wondered if the Opposition wanted to save Michel.
