There is not an iota of truth in the allegations. I totally reject these allegations.â€Dikshit, who is the Congress party’s chief ministerial candidate for the Uttar Pradesh elections, also said the Supreme Court had already made observations on the diaries, comments which appeared at variance with the party line in targeting Modi.The BJP had also said the Supreme Court found no merit in the allegations.
