There is limit to shamelessness; Modi tells AAP
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday mounted a shrill attack on AAP over allegations of the party receiving dubious donations, saying it has exposed its claim of being more honest than others and questioned whether AAP can run Delhi with dishonesty and lies.
In an election rally, Modi also had a swipe at Congress leaders Sonia and Rahul Gandhi, calling them Maa-beta, and said nobody was listening to them except when they make statements against him. While big and old Congress has ruined the city during its 15 years of regime, the temporary party (i.e AAP), which is new and small, destroyed it for one year, the Prime Minister said, adding it was BJP's responsibility to repair the damage. "Can Delhi be run through dishonesty and lies.
Cleverness does not take you very far. We have given test of fire to be where we are",the Prime Minister said, adding that his party would make the national capital standout on the world scene if voted to power. The Arvind Kejriwal's organisation levelled all sorts of allegations of corruption against BJP and Congress but now truth has come out.
"Hathi ke dant dekhane ke aur khane ke aur (what you see is not necessarily true). There is a limit to shamelessness," he said.
People have talked about black money but this is the first time we have heard about wrong deeds in the middle of the night...You have betrayed people's trust, Modi said, in a reference to the allegation by a AAP break-away group that four donations of Rs 50 lakh each were remitted to the account of AAP from four different dubious companies on the midnight of April 15 last.
Taking a dig at AAP, he further said it was strange that very party which used to keep details of Swiss banks accounts of others, strangely had no idea about its own donors.

A woman was killed and four other civilians were injured in Uri in Jammu and Kashmir's Baramulla district as the Pakistan army intensified artillery fire across the Line of Control (LoC) in Kashmir, officials said, adding that a large number of houses have also been damaged in the cross-border shelling.
Reports state that a Pakistani shell struck the vehicle the woman was traveling in, resulting in her death. The woman was identified as Nargis Bashir, and some of her family members had boarded a vehicle to flee from the Razarwani village in Uri that was hit by the mortar and artillery shells from Pakistan.
In an attempt to educate and make people aware about the consequences of war amid Pakistan's continuous firing in the border states, the Delhi government did a mock drill to test air raid sirens installed at the Public Works Department (PWD) at ITO and asked people to not react out of panic.
District Magistrate (Central) G. Sudhakar also urged people to remain calm and not be alarmed when they hear the sirens.
At least twice, sirens sounded during the drill, which started at 3 pm.
PWD Minister Parvesh Verma said 40-50 more such sirens will be installed across the national capital, each of which will cover an area of 8 km.
Residents present in Rajouri along the Line of Control have started moving to safer areas after heavy cross-border shelling and attempted drone and missile attacks last night by Pakistan. All drone and missile attacks were intercepted and foiled by India's air defence system.

Pakistan has claimed that its Economic Affairs Division account on social media has been hacked and called the post where it appealed for more loans from the international community owing to losses from Operation Sindoor "fake."
In a post on X, Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs Fact Checker shared a picture of the post and mentioned that it was "fake." Additionally, it asserted that the account had undergone hacking.
A missile-like object is found deep inside the Dal Lake after loud explosions were heard on Saturday morning in Srinagar, which is a major tourist attraction. The defense ministry also confirms that Pakistan has intruded into Srinagar's airspace in a press release.
Since the early hours of Saturday morning (10th May), Srinagar has been rocked with multiple explosions, and now electricity is taken off in various places across Kashmir. The reason for this is yet to be determined, as reports indicate multiple places in Kashmir have lost power. The Indian Army released a statement after the press briefing, where they mentioned that they have attacked and neutralized multiple terrorist launchpads in a coordinated fire assault, razing them to cinders.
