Refuting the allegations made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi of receiving resistance on the Sujalam Suflam water canal issue, Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot said that Prime Minister's allegations are "baseless".
"Prime Minister Narendra Modi's allegations on opposing canal scheme in the state are baseless. PM Modi blames me that I am stopping the water from coming to Rajasthan. It is for the development of the state, why would I show any resistance?" CM Gehlot said.
The Chief Minister further said that PM Modi raised the Sujalam Suflam water canal issue in 2017 and then Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje wrote a letter to Prime Minister Modi concerning the issue.
"PM Modi raised the Sujalam Suflam water canal issue in 2017 too. Then CM Vasundhara Raje also wrote the same letter in 2005, I repeated the same. Answers should be sought from her," he said.
