Amreli (Gujarat), April 26: Taking strong exception to
Sonia Gandhi`s reported demand that the Gujarat government
should give an account of the Central funds used in the state
Chief Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday questioned the Congress
president`s knowledge of the state government`s functioning.
"Sonia, when she came to Gujarat couple of days ago,
said that Modi should give account of the funds that my
government had received from the Centre," Modi said addressing
an election rally here.
"The question indicates that she does not have primary
knowledge of how the government functions. I would like to
tell Sonia that our (state) government has to send expenditure
reports to the Central ministry every two months. Why don`t
you open those reports and have a look instead of asking us,"
he said.
He also accused the Congress of allegedly messing up the
economy like "termites" while urging people to bring LK
Advani led-NDA to power.
"We need to get rid of the termites called Congress
and bring LK Advani led-NDA to power and put the country on
the path to progress," he said.
