The Congress on Monday alleged that former IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi had sought to grant favours to a Gujarat-based industrialist when Prime Minister Narendra Modi was the chief minister of the state as well as president of the state cricket association.
Former Union Minister Kapil Sibal alleged that Lalit Modi had tried to help two industrialists, including one from Gujarat, in getting an IPL franchise. He said this happened when Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Shah were president and vice president of the Gujarat Cricket Association respectively.
