Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Wednesday that he is working to ensure that nearly Rs. 3,000 crore "looted" from poor people in West Bengal and attached by the Enforcement Directorate is returned to them. PM Modi made this assertion in a telephonic conversation with Amrita Roy, a member of erstwhile royalty and BJP candidate against TMC's Mahua Moitra in Krishnanagar Lok Sabha constituency, and claimed that power and not country is the priority of opposition parties.
"PM Modi told 'Rajmata' Amrita Roy that he is exploring legal options to ensure that the money looted from the poor goes back to them through whatever assets and money the ED has attached from the corrupt," a BJP leader said.
