After the disclosure by former CAG Vinod Rai on 2G and coal block allocation scams, BJP today trained its guns on former prime minister Manmohan Singh and the Congress leadership accusing them of ‘looting’ the country through various scams, and demanded a reply from them.
‘Former CAG Vinod Rai’s disclosures are very serious and we demand that the Congress leadership should come forward and reply because the allegations are against the Congress leadership and then prime minister,’ Information and Broadcasting minister Prakash Javadekar.
Addressing a press conference at the BJP headquarters, Javadekar said the former CAG’s interview has confirmed ‘our charges that the UPA’, led by the Congress, is responsible for causing huge losses to the country through the scams.
‘BJP takes serious note of the interview given (to a media organisation) by the former CAG which reveals many things. It establishes our charge that former prime minister knew of every scam that happened in the UPA... He cannot plead ignorance,’ the minister said.
