‘Modi ji didn’t do drama’ : What Amit Shah said on Gujarat riots verdict

Union home minister Amit Shah, in an interview with news agency ANI on Saturday, spoke at length on the recent verdict by the Supreme Court, which yesterday gave prime minister Narendra Modi and 60 other officials a clean chit in the 2002 Gujarat riots case. Shah held ‘a trio of opposition parties, ideologically motivated elements and some NGOs’ responsible for spreading allegations against Modi, who was then the Gujarat chief minister. “They had a strong ecosystem so everyone started believing lies to be truth,” Shah told ANI.
