The Congress party has been trying hard to pin the Punjab National Bank fraud on the Modi government. Its sole evidence to paste this fraud on the government is a picture in which Nirav Modi posed with the Prime Minister along with many other businessmen at Davos. We had reported the complete details about the fraud earlier in the day.
Billionaire Nirav Modi steals 12,000 crores right under the nose of the Modi Govt and flees the country. Ironically, Nirav Modi was later spotted with PM Modi in Davos. https://t.co/fb97wLhPBC

The general secretary of CPIM, a close ally of Congress has been more direct in his insinuations regarding Nirav Modi’s escape.
If this person had fled India before the FIR on Jan 31, then he is here, photographed at Davos with PM, a week before the FIR, after having escaped from India? Modi govt must clarify. #NiravModi#PublicMoneyLootpic.twitter.com/gQQnKQNjDo

Rahul Gandhi has managed to deploy his newfound sense of humour and wit into play in politicising the Nirav Modi fraud which has in fact originated under UPA tenure in 2011.

National Herald runs polls about corruption and Nirav Modi’s escape
Meanwhile, the Congress mouthpiece is busy trying to gauge the public opinion regarding the fraud and so called corruption under Modi government. Unfortunately, it seems to be getting an unfavourable response on both its polls.
Do you think corruption has vastly decreased in India, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi claims?

Who is to blame for the massive #PNBFraud, #PNBScam involving Nirav Modi, who it appears left India for Switzerland in January, 2018?

Since they are unable to get a favourable response on their polls the staff of National Herald are now blocking Twitter users who they feel are ‘influencing’ the polls adversely.
It appears as thought the mouthpiece of the Congress party is muzzling the democratic voice of people on Twitter by blocking those who speak against. Is this the ‘democratic legacy’ of the founder of National Herald?
