| Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday claimed that the opposition plan to ride on issues of Soharabuddin Sheikh encounter and Tehelka ''expose'' in the state elections has boomeranged and now their leaders are not ready to speak a word on those issues.
''The Congress initially took up the issue of Sohrabuddin Sheikh encounter with full force but soon realised that the issue has boomeranged,'' Modi said addressing a 'sneh-milan' (get together) function organised by BJP at state unit headquarters here.
''Now, the Congress leaders are shying away from speaking on the two issues, of encounter and Tekhelka Expose,'' Modi further said.
Modi traded charges on the Congress-led UPA government on the issue of Ram Setu and minority appeasement.
''They filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court saying that Lord Ram never existed. The Government at the Centre does not belive in the existence of Lord Ram,'' he said.
He also criticised Prime Minister Manmohan Singh for his statement, ''minorities have first right on resources of the country,'' by saying that, ''This is pure vote bank politics. All the poor people should have equal rights on resources of country inspite of their religion''.
Referring to the alliance of BJP rebels and NCP with the Congress, Modi said ''the opposition here is so weak that it is bagging for alliance and wants to fight elections on the basis of power of others.''
