'We Caught Raazdar, Now He Will Expose Naamdars In Chopper Scam': PM Modi On Christian Michel

Stepping up his attack against the Congress, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wendnesday, referring to Christian Michel James, the accused middleman in the AgustaWestland chopper deal case, said the razdaar (confidant) will spill secrets of the politicians that he has served.

Speaking at a rally in Sumerpur, PM Modi said, "Helicopter kaand ke raazdar aur dalal ko sarkar Dubai se pakad ke layi hai. Ab raazdar raaz kholega, pata nahi baat kahan tak jayegi, kitni duur tak jayegi".

A CBI special court on Wednesday sent Michel, to a five-day CBI custody. Michel, who is a citizen of United Kingdom, was brought to India late Tuesday night following his extradition by the UAE in connection with the VVIP choper deal case.

"Yesterday we won in Supreme Court, the court said Indian Govt has the right to reasses their(Sonia and Rahul Gandhi) income tax returns," said the Prime Minister referring to the apex court order on Tuesday where it allowed the Income Tax Department to reopen tax assessment of Congress president and UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi for 2011-12 connection with the National Herald case.

PM Modi further attacked Congress chief Rahul Gandhi saying he doesn't even know the names of his own party members.

"Congress President does not even know the names of his own party leaders. He did not even know the name of a very popular farmer and jat leader in Congress, late Kumbharam ji. He called him 'Kumbhakaran'. You can imagine what such people will do when in power."

On Tuesday, Modi alleged that Kartarpur went to Pakistan at the time of independence because the party leaders of that time had no vision and did not respect Sikh sentiments.

Referring to the recent opening of the Kartarpur Sahib corridor across the India-Pakistan border, Modi said, "Correcting Congress's mistakes was my destiny."
