Baghel mustn't be afraid of probe in Mahadev app 'scam' if he is innocent: Chhattisgarh CM
Congress leader Bhupesh Baghel must not be afraid of an investigation against him in the alleged Mahadev betting app scam if he is innocent. In an interview with PTI as his government completed 100 days in power on Thursday, Sai exuded confidence the BJP would win all 11 Lok Sabha seats in the state as people are eager to see Narendra Modi as prime minister for a third term.
He, however, added his party is not overconfident and does not consider the opposition weak. Asked about Baghel claiming he was being implicated in the Mahadev online betting app case, Sai said the former CM should not be scared at all if he is innocent. The state Economic Offence Wing (EOW) earlier this month registered a case against Baghel and 18 others in the betting app «scam»
on a report submitted by the ED, which has been probing the alleged money laundering part. Asked about alleged selective action against Baghel, Sai said «an accused never admits his/her offence.» Speaking about the works of his government, which came to power following the Assembly polls in November last year, the 60-year-old Sai said he had launched the BJP's Lok Sabha campaign from Bastar on Wednesday and the massive turnout in sensitive areas like Narayanpur showed the level of people's support for the party.
