Hyderabad, June 27 (Maxim News): Former Union minister Bandaru Dattatraya on Thursday alleged that the comments made by Congress leader G. Chinna Reddy against former Prime Minister late PV Narasimha Rao were politically motivated and the BJP was heaping praises on PV as he was responsible for introducing economic reforms in 1991 in the country . He also said PV was responsible for the growth of the country.

Speaking to mediapersons, Dattatraya claimed that the Union government led by BJP leader Atal Bihari Vajpayee continued the same reforms in the country. He said the comments of the Congress leader against PV, first Telugu Prime Minister was highly condemnable. Dattatraya alleged that Congress supremo Sonia Gandhi did not pay tributes to mortal remains of late PV after his demise.
