May 09, 2016 20:54

Attacking Prime Minister Narendra Modi amid controversy over AgustaWestland chopper bribery case, Congress President Sonia Gandhi today said that Modi cannot take away her commitment to and love for India

"India is my home. It is here that I will breathe my last. It is here that my ashes will mingle with my loved ones", said Gandhi.

Without naming the Congress, Modi had attacked the Congress which has launched a counter-attack on his government for dragging Sonia's name, asking "if the court in Italy has said that people from the last government in India have eaten money, why then are you troubling us here?"

"Does anyone of your relatives live in Italy? Does any of my relatives live in Italy.... I have not seen Italy. I have not been to Italy. Nor have I met anyone in Italy. If Italians have accused them what should we do?" Modi had said.
