"Since they are resorting to a fake propaganda, it is necessary to expose them before the public," the Prime Minister told his party workers. "In Madhya Pradesh, they have no other agenda but to defame us with concocted charges," he added.

Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi continues to level quid pro quo charge against Modi, claiming that he tweaked the Rafale fighter jets deal to benefit industrialist Anil Ambani with the offsets deal.

"The matter is before the Supreme Court. When a probe will be ordered, things will become crystal clear. Everyone will go to jail," the Congress chief said on Friday.
