New Delhi: In probably one of the strongest attacks on Narendra Modi, Finance Minister P Chidambaram accused the Gujarat CM of being solely responsible for the communal massacre of 2002.
There will be serious consequences if Modi became the next Prime Minister, warned the Congress stalwart launching a scathing attack on the BJP's PM candidate.
Quoting senior BJP leader LK Advani, Chidambaram said that the BJP patriarch was right in describing Modi as a successful event manager. He said the BJP was taken over by a single individual for which the party would have to pay a heavy price in the future.
Speaking on Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa, Chidambaram accused her party, the AIADMK, of being the B-team of BJP. "Everybody knows about her close relation with Narendra Modi; her views are right wing views, exactly as same as that of BJP like on the issues of Sethusamudram etc," said Chidambaram who is not contesting the Lok Sabha polls and has made way for his son Karti Chidambaram.
On the junior Chidambaram's candidature from Sivaganga, a pocket borough of the senior Congress leader, he said, "I did not chose my son; the Congress party decided to induct new young candidates and they have inducted 14 such candidates and over 100 across India."
