Ahmedabad, DeshGujarat, 25 March, 2009
Hitting back at P.Chidambaram for his comment attacking BJP on IPL issue, BJP’s national general secretary Arun Jaitley questioned Chidambaram’s performance as a Finance minister and Home minister. Jaitley was in Ahmedabad to address party’s state level media training workshop.
When asked to react on Chidambaram’s statement attacking the BJP on IPL issue, Jaitley talking to the media in Ahmedabad said, “well i think mr. chidambaram should concentrate on the job that has been assigned to him. When he was a Finance minister we heard words but not actions. Our investments were not safe when he was a finance minister. Now he is the Home minister and we are again hearing words and not action. Earlier our investment were not safe when he was a Finance minister today we are not safe. That’s his own performance. I think he has one and a half months job left and he must concentrate on his job.”
When asked whether new faces would work in Gujarat for the party this election, Jaitley replied, “The way our party and the government both have performed in Gujarat is good example for us even on national level. I believe there is good image of the party here and government’s performance is well and therefor party’s strategy will definitely be successful.”
Jaitley refused to talk anything on differences between him and Rajnath Singh and said, “There are issues that we don’t discuss in public. Thank you.”
