Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Wednesday said the accused in the Kanhaiya Lal killing case in Udaipur were "linked" to the BJP and should have been "hanged by now" but the investigation by the NIA was not progressing as it should.
In an interview with PTI ahead of the November 25 state assembly polls, the senior Congress leader also spoke about the party's prospects in the state, the "red diary" issue and poll guarantees.
Gehlot termed the red diary issue raked up by the BJP in the poll campaign as "nonsense", and said if there was any substance in their allegations, the diary should be handed over to the Enforcement Directorate, Income Tax department or CBI.
A sacked minister had alleged that the red diary contains details of alleged financial irregularities committed by the Gehlot government.
