Bhopal: It's hard to digest, but it's true. Senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh and his family members have been included in the list of Below Poverty Line (BPL) people by the Central and Madhya Pradesh governments.
The AICC general secretary today took to Twitter to clear the air on the BPL issue.
Singh clarified that he and his family members never applied for the BPL scheme.
Terming it as a conspiracy against him, Singh tweeted, “GOMP and GOI includes my name my brother's name my son's name in BPL ! We all are Income Tax payees Sin.”
The Congress leader and former Madhya Pradesh chief minister demanded apology from the concerned persons.
GOMP and GOI includes my name my brother's name my son's name in BPL ! We all are Income Tax payees.

We have neither applied nor taken any benefit under BPL. This is a conspiracy against me and my family.
