Raipur: Facing heat over an alleged Rs 508 crore deal with Mahadev app promoters, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel on Saturday said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is scared of him the most that's why it is defaming him through the Enforcement Directorate (ED).
"Because BJP is scared of me the most. That's why they want to defame me by accusing me (through the ED)," Baghel told reporters here.
Earlier on Friday, the Enforcement Directorate said that they have intercepted a cash courier Asim Das who was sent from UAE especially, to deliver a large amount of cash for electioneering expenses of the ruling Congress party in Chhattisgarh.
The central agency added that the arrested person, Asim Das, confessed that Rs 508 crore has been so far paid to the Chhattisgarh Chief Minister by Mahadev APP Promoters.
The Congress is questioning the 'timing' of the claims by the central agency as it comes days before Assembly elections are due in Chhattisgarh. (with ANI inputs)
