India's ruling BJP today repeatedly denied a report that bugging devices were found in Union Minister Nitin Gadkari's home, as it tried to stem a growing controversy that saw a Congress leader taking a swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi but stopping short of accusing him.
"Gadkari's house has been snooped upon and the government must reply in Parliament. I come from Gujarat and its commonplace to snoop there.
