  • 10 years ago
BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi has side stepped a question on apologising for the 2002 riots which took place on his watch in Gujarat. In an interview to TV9 , Mr Modi was asked whether he would apologise for the riots which the Congress party has demanded. The Gujarat chief minister says the Congress should look towards itself before pointing fingers at others.
Que : There have been a series of allegations against you because of Gujarat riots. You have expressed regret but haven't apologised. These people are asking for apology.
Modi: Who are these people?
Tv9 : Congress.
Modi: None from Congress have come to meet me. Nor they have even spoken about it(apology). Congress people should first account for their sins before seeking account from others.
The BJP Prime Ministerial candidate was also asked whether he agreed with the statements made by leaders like Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Finance Minister P Chidambaram that he was a "danger" to the country.
On specifically being asked whether his government, if elected, would take legal action against Robert Vadra on charges of land-grabbing in Haryana and Rajasthan, the BJP's prime ministerial candidate says his government would not be vindictive.
