Union Minister says, will retire from politics if there is evidence of Modi promising Rs. 15 lakh
Chitdradurga: Union Minister A. Narayanaswamy has made a bold statement challenging anyone to provide evidence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi promising to deposit 15 lakhs in every individual's account. He added that if such evidence is produced, he would retire from politics.
During a conversation with reporters, Narayanaswamy highlighted that there is existing evidence of Karnataka politicians Siddaramaiah and DK Shivakumar discussing and guaranteeing certain benefits during the state elections. He emphasized that they had made door-to-door promises and signed documents to that effect, and that’s why they are being questioned.

His response came in the wake of Congress suggesting the BJP to fulfill PM Modi’s promise of depositing 15 lakh rupees in everyone’s account as a response to the saffron party’s repeat attacks on Congress regarding its polls promises.
Accusing the Congress party of orchestrating a scheme to keep voters dependent and waiting in queues for handouts, Narayanaswamy criticized their election victory, stating that it was based on these guarantees rather than principles.

Will let my work talk: Raghav Chadha in Instagram post amid rift with AAP
New Delhi (PTI): Sidelined AAP Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha on Friday shared on Instagram a video titled "Voice Raised Price Paid", a compilation of clips of him raising various issues in Parliament, amid his ongoing rift with his party.
"With due respect, to those who are questioning my parliamentary performance, I will let my work do the talking," he said in the post.
The AAP on April 2 removed Chadha as its deputy leader in the Rajya Sabha and has accused him of shying away from raising his voice against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Centre in Parliament and instead engaging in "soft PR".
A combative Chadha has dismissed the party's allegations as "lies" and said that he went to Parliament to raise people's issues and not to create ruckus.
Since his removal as the AAP's deputy leader in the Upper House, Chadha has shared several videos and posts on social media, making it clear that he will not take his demotion lying down.
