Congress has slammed Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi saying his appearance before the SIT probing 2002 riots has brought 'ill-repute' to the high office he holds and he should resign. "If the BJP has even an iota of morality, it should have asked him to step down before bringing such a high office to ill-repute," says the Congress spokesperson Manish Tiwari. "It is unprecedented that a person occupying a Constitutional position, that too of the Chief Minister, has been summoned for investigation in a case of mass murder," Tewari said. On the other hand, BJP spokesperson Nirmala Seetharaman denied suggestions that Modi's appearance before SIT was an embarrassment for the party. “The Chief Minister had said in the Gujarat assembly and also in the public letter last week that nobody was above the law and that also included the Chief Minister of the state," she says. She also pointed out that no FIR was registered against the Gujarat Chief Minister. What is your view?
