UAE says no official aid to Kerala announced

The row over UAE's reported "offer" of Rs 700 crore for Kerala flood relief took a new turn on Friday with Ahmed Al Banna, the Emirates' ambassador here, saying that the Gulf nation has not officially announced any financial aid. BJP immediately claimed that UAE's financial assistance was concocted and was a "Communist-Islamist" plot to defame India while CPM said it was "unusual" for the government to issue a statement turning down an offer if none had been made.
