Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday denounced the ruling Congress in Rajasthan, saying that its “dark deeds” had been recorded in a red diary, which would ensure its defeat in the upcoming State Assembly election. Sacked Minister Rajendra Gudha had sought to table the diary in the Assembly earlier this week, claiming that it contained the details of questionable transactions by the Congress.
Addressing a BJP rally in Sikar, Mr. Modi said that the diary was a fresh product of the Congress’ loot ki dukaan (shop of plunder), which would expose several party leaders and destroy their political career. The PM also claimed that a recruitment paper leak industry was thriving in the State, arguing that the future of Rajasthan’s youth could not be secured unless the Congress was removed from power.
