Parliamentary party meeting today when Prime Minister Atal
Bihari Vajpayee cautioned his MPs against the 'malicious'
campaign carried out by the Congress, especially against him
in the state.
"They are making all kinds of allegations against me and
the party accusing us of taking beef. We have to be cautious
and counter this with an effective strategy specially in view
of the coming assembly elections in the state," he told the
meeting, spokesman V K Malhotra told reporters here.
The Prime Minister described as "white lie" the reports
that the country's export of cow meat had increased saying
"how can it increase when we are not exporting," Malhotra
said.
He also drew members' attention to the posters being put
up in Madhya Pradesh by Congress and youth congress workers in
the state against BJP and the party would have to counter
this.
