Gohil said he had acquired information through RTI on “how the public exchequer was misused to benefit the victim of the snooping” and threatened to reveal further details if Modi denied the charges.
However, refuting the fresh allegations, Naidu said the solar project in question had been handled by the Congress-led dispensation at the Centre and not by the Modi government. BJP has issued a statement saying that Equilibrium Energy Company, in which the woman and her brothers were directors, has not been paid any money by Gujarat government for the Smart Grid Project at the Secretariat.
The party further claimed that IIM, Ahmedabad, and the Union Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, had given incubation support to the said company, including seed funding aid of Rs 25 lakh.
