Akhilesh Yadav, the head of the Samajwadi Party, and Wayanad MP asserted during a joint news conference that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's interview with ANI was "scripted and a flop show." 

A few days ago, the Prime Minister gave a very long interview to ANI. It was scripted, but it was a flop show. The Prime Minister tried to explain electoral bonds in it. The Prime Minister said that the system of electoral bonds was brought for transparency, to clean politics. If this is true then why was that system cancelled by the Supreme Court. And secondly, if you wanted to bring transparency, why did you hide the names of those who gave money to BJP. And why did you hide the dates on which they gave you the money? Rahul Gandhi asserts.

Earlier this year, the US Supreme Court decided to abandon the electoral bonds program. A judge in India mandated a little more than a month ago that the State Bank of India furnish the identities of the purchasers of electoral bonds. 

This is the biggest extortion scheme in the world. All the businessmen of India understand and know this and no matter how much clarification the Prime Minister wants to give, it will not make any difference. Because the entire country knows that the Prime Minister is the champion of corruption," Rahul Gandhi said after that.
