"Opposition Got Bonds Too, It's Extortion?": Amit Shah Rebuts Rahul Gandhi

Amit Shah's remarks were a sharp response to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who has said the electoral bonds system was the "world's biggest extortion scheme"

Countering the Opposition's charge on the now-scrapped electoral bonds system, Union Home Minister Amit Shah today asked if the Opposition parties would also describe donations they received through bonds as "extortion".

Mr Shah's remarks, made in an exclusive interview to NDTV, were a sharp response to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who has said the electoral bonds system was the "world's biggest extortion scheme" and called Prime Minister Narendra Modi as "champion of corruption".
