New Delhi, July 5 (IBNS): Bringing fresh troubles to former Indian Premier League (IPL) commissioner Lalit Modi, the Rashtrapati Bhavan filed a formal complaint to Delhi Police against him, said reports.
The Rashtrapati Bhavan reportedly attached a copy of a June 23 tweet posted by Lalit Modi which referred to President Pranab Mukherjee's Secretary, Omita Paul, in a derogatory manner.
 
Modi had tweeted, "The biggest hawala operator is Vivek Nagpal also best known as Omita Paul's bagman. Lots of data on him. Does anyone care."
 
Modi had also alleged that President Pranab Mukherjee, during his tenure as Finance Minister, had pushed Enforcement Directorate to act against him after he had raised questions about the shareholding pattern in IPL's Kochi franchise which also led to resignation of Shashi Tharoor from the Union council of ministers.
