Union finance minister and senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley hit back at Ahmed Patel on Twitter. After Ahmed Patel blamed BJP backed VP Singh government for not providing additional security to former prime minister Rajiv Gandhi, Jaitley wrote, “ From May 1991 till 2004, the Congress blamed its present ally the DMK for Shri Rajiv Gandhi's assassination. It even withdrew support from the United Front government on this ground. 28 years later, today a desperate Congress has discovered a BJP role.”
