Actor-turned- BJP politician Shatrughan Sinha has once again questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi for spinning “unsubstantiated and unbelievable” stories against political rivals.

Sinha’s comments came a day after Modi said Congress leaders met the Pakistani High Commissioner in New Delhi.

“Hon’ble Sir! Just to win elections anyhow, and that too at the fag end of the process, is it a must to come up with and endorse new, unsubstantiated and unbelievable stories everyday against political opponents? Now linking them to Pakistan High Commissioner and Generals?! Incredible!” Sinha said in a tweet.

It may be recalled that PM Modi had accused a group of Congress leaders of meeting the Pakistan High Commissioner at Mani Shankar Aiyar’s residence.

Addressing an election rally at Sanand, Modi said the meeting at Aiyar’s residence was also attended by former Indian Vice-President Hamid Ansari and former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

Continuing his attack on the Congress, Mr. Modi said, “There was a meeting convened at Aiyar’s residence where Pakistan’s High Commissioner, Pakistan’s Foreign Minister, Ansari and Manmohan Singh were present. The meeting lasted three hours.”

“The next day Mani Shankar said I am a ‘neech,’” said the Prime Minister. Mr. Aiyar was promptly suspended from the Congress’ primary membership. He also apologised for his comment.

Sinha also advised the Prime Minister to stop communalising the atmosphere and return to the promises that the BJP made in the 2014 general elections.

Meanwhile, Shatrughan Sinha in separate tweets wished Sonia Gandhi on her Birthday and hailed Rahul Gandhi’s elevation as Congress president.
