‘That’s why they abuse chowkidar’: Modi slams Cong over ‘suitcases of cash’

Days after the Income Tax Department conducted raids on alleged associates of Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath, Prime Minister Narendra Modi fired a salvo at the Congress for coining the slogan 'chowkidar chor hai'. Addressing an election rally in Maharashtra's Latur, Modi said that corruption was a part of the Congress' character, and that it hadn't even been six months since the party came to power in Madhya Pradesh, but proof of corruption was already emerging. Congress has called the raids politically motivated.
