"Today's questions for PM Modi as he heads to Nanded and Parbhani: Will the PM deliver on his promise to put BJP's Rajya Sabha MP Ashok Chavan in jail? What is the BJP's plan to deal with Marathwada's worsening drought and water scarcity? Why has the Indian Railways performed so poorly in Nanded division," Mr. Ramesh said in a post on 'X'.
Elaborating on what he dubbed as "jumla details", the Congress leader said the prime minister should revisit his words from his campaign in Nanded on March 30, 2014, when he launched a ferocious attack on Mr. Chavan — "now the latest labaarthi of the 'BJP Washing Machine Yojana'".
"The PM declared Chavan an 'Adarsh candidate', and said that 'the Congress is shameless' for having given him a ticket while he was under investigation," Mr. Ramesh said.
He said Mr. Modi had announced that he would send Mr. Chavan to jail "within six months" if he became the Prime Minister.
