I am taking opinion from the lawyers, after that I will go to the police station and file a case, they will have to answer in the court the kind of allegations they have leveled against me,” Joshi told media persons at the party hadquarters here.

“Rajendra Gudha, along with the BJP, has tried to defame Congress. One thing is being described as a diary which does not seem to be a diary at all. If he has a red diary, then he should tell what is there in that red diary? BJP is also involved in this conspiracy,” he said.

“When Gudha was waving diaries in the Vidhan Sabha, shortly after that BJP MLAs also came with small red diaries. At the time when Gudha was raising the matter, at the same time BJP MLAs were also waving red diaries. This is clearly indicating towards the conspiracy. This cannot happen without collusion,” he added.
