Modi (when he was the Chief Minister of Gujarat) had refused to wear a skull cap but now he was praising the Islamic culture of Central Asia, Vaghela said.
"Our PM was in Central Asia (on a visit to Kazakhstan). During his speech there, he praised the Islamic culture of that region. This is very strange, because in the past, he had once refused to wear a skull cap. Such double standard does not become of him," said Vaghela.
The Congress leader also asked Modi to check the progress made by Astrakhan, a province of Russia, regarding the MoUs it had signed with Gujarat during the Vibrant Gujarat Summit of 2005.
"When our PM is going to Russia, I want to remind him about MoUs signed between Gujarat and Astrakhan. I don't know what is the progress in the last ten years. I want to request the PM to get a progress report from them," Vaghela said.
"You will find empty liquor and beer bottles around that memorial....I saw it with my own eyes. I request the PM to raise this issue during his visit so that cleanliness is maintained throughout the year," he said.
