Kurukshetra/Ghaziabad: BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi on Thursday brought Robert Vadra in the line of fire on controversial land deals, asking Rahul Gandhi whether his brother-in-law would be asked to act as ‘chowkidar’ (watchman) to guard peoples’ land.
Taking a dig at Mr Gandhi in Kurukshetra in Haryana, Modi said “Shehzade” has been talking about the need for all countrymen to act as ‘chowkidar’ over its resources and asked if his brother in law (Mr Vadra) would also be one of those keeping guard.
Mr Vadra, who has drawn fire over his controversial land deals in Haryana and Rajasthan, has denied any wrongdoing. Mr Modi asserted that new laws would be framed to bring back black money stashed abroad if BJP comes to power while warning that those who have “looted” the country, no matter how powerful, would not be spared.
Mr Modi addressed another public meeting in Ghaziabad.
