"I have never indulged in political vendetta nor will I do it in the future," Prime Minister Narendra Modi told CNN-News18 in an exclusive interview, emphatically rejecting allegations of his political rivals that some of the investigations launched by the government were motivated by political considerations.
The PM said that his record of 14 years as the Gujarat chief minister proves he doesn’t believe in political tit-for-tat. "History bears witness to the fact that I have never opened any file due to political considerations. I have never been accused of this either. It has been over two years here (at the Centre) too. The government has given no instruction to open any file. The law will take its own course," he said, in response to a question on whether the government would crack down political dynasties.
