As a retort to PM Modi's allegations about Pakistan meddling in Gujarat elections, senior Congress leader Anand Sharma said Modi’s insinuations about Congress Party's collusion with Pakistan are highly condemnable. Terming the allegations as baseless, he added that the PM has given this statement to rouse sympathy for himself as he is worried about the BJP’s impending defeat in Gujarat.

गुजरात के चुनावों में पाकिस्तान के दखल को लेकर प्रधान मंत्री मोदी के आरोपों के प्रत्युत्तर में वरिष्ठ कांग्रेस नेता आनंद शर्मा ने कहा कि पाकिस्तान के साथ कांग्रेस पार्टी की मिलीभगत के बारे में प्रधानमंत्री का कटाक्ष बेहद निंदनीय है। आरोपों को आधारहीन बताते हुए उन्होंने कहा कि प्रधान मंत्री ने अपने लिए सहानुभूति जगाने के लिए यह बयान दिया है क्योंकि वे गुजरात में भाजपा की आगामी हार को लेकर चिंतित हैं।
