Trinamool Congress today demanded a CBI probe into Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi's allegation that Narendra Modi as Gujarat Chief Minister had taken money from Sahara and Birla groups.
"The Congress Vice President raised the issue of corruption at a public meeting in Gujarat today. Trinamool Congress welcomes the move", TMC chief national spokesperson Derek O'Brien said.
"The TMC had first raised this issue in 2014 and there must be a proper investigation into it. If necessary, the CBI should probe the matter for the truth to come out," he said.
Gandhi today alleged that Narendra Modi as Gujarat Chief Minister had taken money from Sahara and Birla groups and demanded an independent inquiry into it, a charge BJP rejected as an attempt to divert attention from the AgustaWestland probe in which the names of Congress leaders and the "family" were coming up.
