Prime Minister Narendra Modi today backed Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan from the most public of forums – an election campaign rally in Bihar’s Gaya.
Both ministers have been under fire from the opposition for their involvement in what is called the “Lalitgate” and the Vyapam scam. But the BJP has backed both, turning down the Opposition’s demand for their resignation.
Today, while taking on the Nitish Kumar government over development in Bihar, Prime Minister Modi came up with what was seen a powerful endorsement for the two Chief Ministers.
