New Delhi, Jul 8 (PTI) Hitting back at Rahul Gandhi after his attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi over probe into foundations linked to the Nehru-Gandhi family, the BJP said on Wednesday those whose "family is out on bail" on alleged corruption charges should not talk about truth.

"Rahul ji, those whose whole family is out on bail on corruption charges should not talk about “TRUTH”. And why do you feel intimidated if you & your mother haven't erred? And yes while Modi because of his Honesty is “Priceless”...every member of your family has a price tag & is pliable," BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra tweeted.
