The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given a befitting reply to Rahul Gandhi's baseless allegations.

"The Prime Minister has rightly ridiculed Rahul Gandhi's charges, as with no document, no substantial evidence and just based on Prashant Bhushan's applications, he is claiming that Modi has been paid Rs. 40 crores by the Sahara group in 2012-13," BJP leader S. Prakash told ANI here.

He said that UPA was at the helm of affairs in the country at the time and could have enquired at that time.

"Unfortunately, he expects a very high response from the Prime Minister which he does not deserve and Supreme Court has already given a verdict about it," he said.

He said that repeatedly making charge that don't hold water seemed to be an exercise in frivolity.

Prakash said Rahul Gandhi should realise his agenda is not working with the masses.
