Ludhiana (Punjab), May 13 (ANI): Union Railways Minister Piyush Goyal on Sunday recalled the 2008 Mumbai attacks, and said while the shootings were taking place inside the Oberoi Hotel, the then Chief Minister of Maharashtra Vilasrao Deshmukh was busy inviting a producer to get his son a role in film. Goyal also criticised the Congress government for not taking a strong action against the 2008 attacks and termed it a “coward” government. “I am from Mumbai; you might remember the 26/11 terror attack. The then Congress government was weak and couldn't do anything. The then CM had brought a film producer outside Oberoi Hotel while shooting and bombing was going on inside. CM was concerned about getting his child a film role,” Goyal said at a business meet in Punjab’s Ludhiana.
