Modi: Watches being distributed Chidambarams pics
April 17, 2014 15:17
Sharpening his attack on P Chidambaram, BJP leader Narendra Modi today alleged wrist watches with photos of the Finance Minister were being distributed to voters and demanded a probe by the Election Commission.
"In Tamil Nadu, there is a Congress leader -- recounting Minister -- he is so afraid that he ran away from elections,' Modi said, without taking Chidambaram's name while addressing an election rally in this town, bordering the union minister's native Sivaganga district.
On a whirlwind two-day electioneering in Tamil Nadu to canvass for NDA candidates, the BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate continued to describe Chidambaram as "recounting minister', a reference to his controversial win from Sivaganga constituency in 2009.
Some people on this dais showed me a watch. It has the recounting ministers photo and his symbol. I was told that these watches are being given to every household. EC should take it very seriously. There should be a probe against the recounting minister and Congress, he said.
