The Rajasthan CM's first statement since the Lalit Modi controversy broke two weeks ago.


Vasundhara Raje defended her action with the BJP's central leadership saying she signed the affidavit as Lalit Modi's friend. Raje, however, said she did not depose before any court of law.


On Wednesday evening with the Congress releasing copies of a seven-page document signed by the Rajasthan CM supporting former IPL commissioner Lalit Modis immigration to the UK, pressure mounted on the party for her resignation.


The Congress showed documents "signed" by her endorsing the former IPL commissioner's immigration to the UK.


In the document, Raje says I make this statement in support of any immigration application that Lalit Modi makes, but do so on the strict condition that my assistance will not become known to the Indian authorities.
