Serious threat if Modi becomes PM: FM
Finance Minister: Serious Threat if Modi Becomes PM, n probably one of the strongest attacks on Narendra Modi, Finance Minister P Chidambaram accused the Gujarat CM of being solely responsible for the communal massacre of 2002.
New Delhi: In probably one of the strongest attacks on Narendra Modi, Finance Minister P Chidambaram accused the Gujarat CM of being solely responsible for the communal massacre of 2002. There will be serious consequences if Modi became the next Prime Minister, warned the Congress stalwart launching a scathing attack on the BJP's PM candidate.
Quoting senior BJP leader LK Advani, Chidambaram said that the BJP patriarch was right in describing Modi as a successful event manager. He said the BJP was taken over by a single individual for which the party would have to pay a heavy price in the future.
On the junior Chidambaram's candidature from Sivaganga, a pocket borough of the senior Congress leader, he said, "I did not chose my son; the Congress party decided to induct new young candidates and they have inducted 14 such candidates and over 100 across India."Chidambaram welcomed the support extended by Shahi Imam of Jama Masjid Syed Ahmed Bukhari to Congress and claimed the party had the backing of all Muslim bodies.
"I welcome the support extended to our party by the Delhi Imam. Not only he, but all Muslims bodies are extending support to Congress."
