Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari on Wednesday lashed out at Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi for blaming the ruling Congress Party for rampant corruption in the country.
Tewari indirectly blamed Modi for the fake encounters in Gujarat.
"The alphabetical prima that he (Modi) follows starts with an 'F' which stands for fake encounters and ends with a 'G' which stands for genocide. So, therefore the alphabetical prima that he follows or his government has been following is perhaps very well known to this country," he told media here.
Launching a scathing attack on the Congress-led UPA over the rampant corruption and scandals, Modi yesterday said the country is on the 'verge of destruction'.
Addressing an election rally at Amroodon ka Bagh in Jaipur, Modi said there is no accountability in the Congress-led UPA II Government at the Centre.
"With Congress, we can't make India corruption free. For that the medicine is to free ourselves of Congress," said Modi.
