The Gujarat government today said that Congress was trying to spread a “charter of lies” against Chief Minister Narendra Modi to tarnish his clean and transparent image.
Government spokesperson Jaynarayan Vyas said this while reacting to a petition filed by Congress leaders in Gujarat to President Pratibha Patil today, demanding a CBI probe into the alleged corruption of Rs one lakh crore during Modi’s tenure.
“Corrupt policies of the UPA government is irretrievably harming the prestige of India. People are angry with the central government and this has shaken the foundation of Congress rule,” Vyas said.
“In order to hide their corrupt practices, the Congress was trying to spread its charter of lies against Modi and Gujarat government, to tarnish the clean and transparent image of the state,” Vyas said.
