New Delhi, Mar 29 (ANI): Par Tapi Narmada river-linking project in Gujarat was started by Manmohan Singh's government and was not Bharatiya Janata Party's pilot project, said BJP MP from Navsari CR Patil on March 28. The BJP leader hit out at the Congress saying that they are misleading the tribal people. "Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman had announced Par Tapi Narmada river-linking project in the budget. She had given her approval to work on the project. But the first condition is that those states involved must agree with it. However, Maharashtra and Gujarat both refused to give permission. Congress trying to mislead tribals," Patil said.
