In a press statement Tiwari and Mishra said during the 2014 Lok Sabha polls, Modi had said that every Indian would get ₹15 lakh if the black money deposited abroad was brought back to India. They said the people failed to get even ₹15 against the promise of ₹15 lakh. The BJP should now clarify how such a large sum reached abroad and who owned the black money, they said.
