: Launching a scathing attack on Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu for his remarks on Islamabad's claim of it not being involved in the Pulwama terror attack, BJP president Amit Shah Thursday said the former had more faith in Pakistan Prime Minister than Narendra Modi.

"Chandrababu endorses what Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan says on Pulwama that his country is not involved in the dastardly attack.

He is taking Imran Khans side in his greed for vote bank politics and is seeking to create doubts on Indias Prime Minister. Dont indulge in such mean and low politics," the BJP president said.

Shah said the people of Andhra Pradesh would seek an answer from Naidu on this in the coming elections.

"Fix a border... how low do you want to stoop in politics," Shah said.

Naidu had Wednesday reportedly said: "Pakistan has made it clear that it has no role in the Pulwama attack.

Suspicion is now strengthening across the country that political expediency could be behind the attack. We will not tolerate such things to further political vested interests."
It said: "There are many doubts on Pakistan Prime Ministers remarks. There is a debate in the country on the remarks by (West Bengal Chief Minister) Mamata Banerjee."
