With fake cheques Cong workers protest BJP's 'hollow promises'

Bengaluru, Apr 3 (IBNS) Deriding the Narendra Modi government for its "hollow promises" hundreds of Congress activists protested with fake cheques as the ruling BJP began a two-day National Executive meeting on Friday.

Targeting BJP on the black money issue, Youth Congress workers held up cheques worth Rs. 15 lakh made out to "Every citizen of India."

The cheques were showed as "signed" by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to deride  his promise to bring back black money illegally stashed in foreign bank accounts.

A large number of police personnel tried to stop the protesters who gathered outside the venue of the BJP's high profile meet being attended by PM Modi, BJP president Amit Shah and several other senior leaders.


The Congress has embarked on a high-pitched campaign accusing the BJP on going back on its promises it made during the national election last year.
