New Delhi: Does Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi face the threat of being assassinated? Academic Madhu Kishwar believes so.

Kishwar on Wednesday talked about the possibility of Modi facing an assassination attempt on Twitter. She tweeted, "Yesterday met some senior govt officers who said Modi`s assassination real possibility if Teesta Congress fail to get fraud FIR against Modi."

She was referring to civil rights activist Teesta Setalvad.
