'Chidambaram filed false cases against me, Modi and Shah': Gadkari
New Delhi, Dec 04: Union Minister Nitin Gadkari on Wednesday refuted claims of political vendetta and said that there is evidence against Chidambaram in the INX media, money laundering case.
"There is evidence for the cases against him, there have been inquiries, now the matter is sub-judice and the court will take the decision," said Gadkari.
We have never been vindictive, on the other hand when Chidambaram ji was Home Minister during Congress rule, he filed false cases against me, he also filed false cases against Modi ji & Amit Shah ji. Later, we all were proved innocent," he said in a conversation with ANI.
