Former Railway Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal on Sunday hit out at his detractors, who questioned his re-nomination from Chandigarh over the cash-for-post scam issue, claiming he was a victim of a conspiracy and had suffered despite there being no evidence against him.

“It was a conspiracy against me, a malicious campaign was run. After months of probe, when no proof was found against me, the charge sheet did not name me,” the 65-year-old leader said addressing a press conference at the party’s city headquarters. He said that his detractors had made it their “pastime to target” him.
