A Challenge thrown to Sonia Gandhi in Parliament!
By: Tupaki Desk | 6 Aug 2015 7:53 AM GMT
Foreign Minister Sushma Swaraj on Thursday informed Parliament that she has done no favours to former IPL boss Lalit Modi. She challenged the Opposition Parties to prove that their allegations against her are true. "Submit a note or letter or an email which shows I had asked UK Government to provide travel papers to Lalit Modi," she demands.
Sushma Swaraj questioned Sonia Gandhi what would she do if she was in her place. Clarifying that she favoured Lalit Modi's wife strictly on humanitarian grounds, The Union Minister says the woman doesn't face any criminal charges and then why should she be punished.
Complaining about injustice to her as she wasn't even given an opportunity to defend herself, Sushma Swaraj felt bad about the fact that those who respected her a lot over the years have been now demanding her resignation. She reiterates that all the charges against her in the Lalit Modi issue are simply baseless.
