Ahmedabad, 19 April 2014
Bollywood actress Ameesha Patel on Saturday put the Congress, for which she has been campaigning this election season, in an embarrassing situation when she praised Gujarat Chief Minister and BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi over his development work in the state.
Patel, who was campaigning for Congress candidate from Gandhinagar Kirit Patel, told reporters that Gujarat indeed has seen a lot of development. When the reporters reminded her that the party she has been campaigning for doesn’t acknowledge that Modi has done any development for Gujarat, Patel said: “I feel wherever the Congress has worked, it has brought development.” “But it is Modi who is in power in Gujarat,” when the journalists counter-asked, Patel said: “When the Congress will come to power in Gujarat, we will see more development.”
Last week, Ameesha Patel campaigned for Congress candidate from Muzaffarnagar, Uttar Pradesh, Pankaj Agarwal.
