No govt. acted as promptly against frauds as Modi govt.: Shah

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Bharatiya Janata Party president Amit Shah has took on Congress chief Rahul Gandhi for his attacks on the prime minister over the Punjab National Bank scam, saying no other government had acted as promptly and taken stringent action against frauds as the Narendra Modi government.

Shah also hit out at the Sidaramaiah government, accusing it of following ‘three Ds — Dhokha (cheating), Dadagiri (hooliganism) and dynastic politics’. The BJP chief said the Enforcement Directorate and the Central Bureau of Investigation have taken prompt action in the case.

“There has been no government other than Modiji’s government, that has taken prompt and most stringent of actions against any frauds committed in the past,” Shah told reporters in Kalaburagi. His reply came when he was asked about Gandhi’s remarks against Modi in the multi-crore PNB fraud case.

At public rallies at Vijapura and Bagalkote districts in North Karnataka, Gandhi had been targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi on corruption, asking as to why Modi, who had described himself as the country’s chowkidar (watchman), was ‘silent’ on the bank fraud allegedly involving jewellers Nirav Modi and his uncle Mehul Choksi.
