On Saturday, Rahul Gandhi had told ANI that PNB scam could not have taken place without the involvement of the government officials and demanded an answer from the Prime minister.
A political blame game has been going between the BJP and Congress ever since the PNB bank fraud involving Nirav Modi came to forth.
The PNB detected a Rs, 11,300 crore scam in which jeweller Nirav Modi acquired fraudulent letters of undertaking from one of its branches for overseas credit from other Indian lenders.
The scam was started in 2011 and was detected in the third week of January this year, after which the PNB officials reported it to the concerned agencies.
The Congress has been alleging that the fraud took place under the "nose of Modi government" while BJP has been stating that it happened during UPA regime
