Agencies RAMPUR, Apr 8: BJP president J P Nadda on Monday came down heavily on the Congress, accusing it of committing scams in all the three worlds and said the party did not spare the sky, underground and water. Addressing an election rally in Rampur on Monday in favour of the BJP candidates, Nadda attacked the INDIA bloc and said, "Modi ji is saying to end corruption and that none of the corrupt persons will be spared. All of them will go to jail." Further quoting Modi, he said the 'gathbandhan' (alliance) is saying that the corrupt should be "saved" and they are "engaged" in it. Nadda also addressed a rally in Bijnor. "Did the Congress not commit the coal scam? Did the Congress not commit CWG scam, 2G scam, 3G scam, AugustaWestland scam, submarine scam?" he said in Rampur. In other words, the opposition bloc committed scams in all the three "loks" (worlds), Nadda said. "They did not spare the 'nabh' (sky), 'paataal' (below the surface of the Earth) and 'jal' (water). The Congress committed corruption in the three worlds," he said. Later, addressing an election rally in Dhampur in Bijnor district, Nadda said, "Earlier, U in UP stood for 'utpeedan' (harassment) and P stood for 'pakshpaat' (partiality). Today, U stands for 'ummeed' (hope) and P stands for 'pragati' (progress)." Attacking the previous governments, he said, "Those governments were not for everyone. Those governments belonged to a particular caste. Today, under the leadership of Modi ji, the government of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas, that is, Sabka Sarkar is running." He also alleged that Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav committed the laptop scam, the Gomti (river) front scam and foodgrain scam. Similarly, senior RJD leader Lalu Prasad committed fodder scam and job in lieu of land scam, he further alleged. Attacking DMK leader and Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M K Stalin, the BJP chief said, "Do you know that the income of Stalin is Rs 1.32 lakh crore. There is no source of this income. (Former Jharkhand chief minister) Hemant Soren of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) also committed the scam. "Has (Delhi Chief Minister) Arvind Keriwal not committed the liquor scam? This 'ghamandiya' (arrogant) alliance is nothing but an alliance of the corrupt people," he said. |
