RAIPUR: Chhattisgarh chief minister Bhupesh Baghel on Wednesday sharply reacted to BJP national vice president Raman Singh’s remarks and demanded an apology for his remarks that “Bhupesh is acting as the ATM for Sonia Gandhi” and for his allegation that an ‘illegal levy’ of Rs 25 per tonne is being collected in coal transportation.
"Raman Singh’s statement on ‘ATM of Sonia Gandhi’ is highly objectionable and he should prove his allegations on this as well as allegations on coal transportation. Singh must apologize publicly. Else, action would be taken against him and I would file a defamation case. Singh goes to Delhi to do what? Only to complain. But he can’t be alleging just about anything?” he told reporters.
