It demanded that Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan reveal the source who told him about the assistance.
Addressing the media here, state BJP chief P.S. Sreedharan Pillai said: "We want Vijayan to explain about this news and from where he received it. After the Centre expressed reservations in accepting the aid, a vicious smear campaign was unleashed against the Centre and Prime Minister Narendra Modi."
Earlier this week at a press meet in the state capital, Vijayan spoke about the aid from the UAE, saying that the news was conveyed to him by Middle East business honcho, M.A. Yusuf Ali.
Pillai said that no central government, save Modi's, has extended so much help to a state.
"He came and assessed the flood situation. Despite bad weather, he got in a helicopter and surveyed the destruction. Such is his commitment," he added.
