Claiming that no Blue Corner notice was issued against him, former IPL commissioner Lalit Modi on Monday dismissed allegations levelled against him in the visa controversy, saying that he was being targeted as part of a political conspiracy aimed at destabilising the Narendra Modi government. Modi’s counsel Mehmood Abdi told a press conference on Monday that Mr. Modi was being ‘hounded’ for his revelations on Sunanda Pushkar’s sweat equity in the Kochi IPL team after which Mr. Modi’s and his family’s security was abruptly withdrawn.
