nClaiming that Congress president Rahul Gandhi has no ostensible source of income, the BJP on Saturday questioned the substantial rise in his income between 2004 and 2014.
BJP leader and Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad told the media that Congress leader's income had risen from over `55 lakh in 2004 to `9 crore in 2014 as per his election affidavits, and asked how can a mere MP witness such a jump in income.
"In his election affidavit in 2004, his income was `55,38,123 while in 2009, it rose to `2 crore and in 2014 it rose to `9 crore. We know how much an MP earns. We want to ask what is this Rahul Gandhi model of development without an ostensible source of income," he said.
He also questioned Rahul whether he had bought two properties from Unitech which was linked to the 2G spectrum allocation scam, PTI quoted BJP leader as saying.
