Serious allegations are on him and even after that Congress party has promised of giving ‘’zero tolerance on corruption. Can anyone digest this?” he questioned the rally.
The Congress has been in power in the state under Virbhadra Singh since December of 2012, and faces charges of amassing wealth disproportionately during his tenure as a Union Minister in UPA-II, Modi said in the rallies and further claimed that mining mafia, forest mafia, drug mafia, tender mafia and transfer mafia were active from last five years and now time has come to uproot them.
