“BJP mein itna brashtachaar hai ki main kal confuse ho gaya tha. Madhya Pradesh ke CM ne Panama nahi kiya unhone to e tendering aur vyapam scam kiye hain: Rahul Gandhi on his earlier remark that MP CM’s son was named in Panama papers,” Congress president said.
Launching an attack on Chouhan, the Congress supremo had said, “Shivraj Singh, also known as Mamaji, his son has been named in the Panama papers. Even a country like Pakistan punished its former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif when he was named in the Panama papers. But here no action has been taken place as of now.”
Meanwhile, Chouhan has threatened to file a criminal defamation suit against Rahul Gandhi for making ‘frivolous and mala fide statements’.
Mr @RahulGandhi
You have been making patently false allegations of Vyapam to Panama Papers against me and my family.Tomorrow, I am filing a criminal defamation suit for maximum damages against you for frivolous and malafide statements.
Let law take its own course now.
