Union Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi on Thursday said that Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi and the Party should understand that they are writing its last chapter in free India with an expired script.

"I think that Rahul Gandhi and the Congress Party should understand that with an expired script, they are writing the last chapter of a Congress free India. They should also understand that so many scams took place during their time that it would only hamper their image,"

Naqvi further said there are so many corruption cases against the Congress Party and its leaders.

"If they come out in public domain, they will expose the DNA of the grand old party." he added.

Yesterday, Gandhi said that he had "detailed" information about Prime Minister Narendra Modi's "personal corruption".

"The PM is personally terrified of me being allowed to open my mouth inside Lok Sabha because I have information...that is going to explode his balloon," he added.

The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has rejected Gandhi's claim and said 125 crore people of the country have a liking for Prime Minister Modi as there is no question on his integrity.

BJP general secretary Shrikant Sharma asked Gandhi to present the proof if he has any against the Prime Minister.
