Blasting Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi over the aspersions he cast over the dossier of involvement India provided to Pakistan in wake of the 26/11 Mumbai terror strikes the Congress on Monday urged Modi to retract his words while adding that he sounded like an "advocate" of Pakistan.
"Modi's statement seems as if an advocate of Pakistan is speaking," Congress spokesman Shakeel Ahmed told reporters here.
He said Modi's statement becomes all the more damning as it was made in a meeting of forensic experts from a dozen countries.
Modi had said that when evidence against Kasab was not acceptable to India, how can Pakistan accept it (evidence).
"The BJP should ask Modi why he gave such an irresponsible statement...It is unfortunate if someone starts supporting those who attack India to score political points," Ahmed said.
Terming the issue as a "matter of great concern", Ahmed said Modi should take back his remark and express regret for saying such a thing.
