NEW DELHI: Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi today sarcastically reminded Prime Minister Narendra Modi of his comments on corruption – “Na khaoonga na khaney doonga (I won’t be corrupt and won’t allow others to be).
“Prime Minister, your words should carry some weight. Aap Rajasthan mein khaney kyun de rahey hain? (Why are you allowing corruption in Rajasthan?) Why are you not bringing back Lalit Modi? Aap Shivraj Singh Chouhan ko Khaaney kyun de rahey hain? (Why are you allowing Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s corruption?),” Gandhi said at party hedquarters.
Mr Gandhi’s comment came on a day the Supreme Court ordered a CBI investigation into the Vyapam admission and recruitment scam in Madhya Pradesh and the alarming number of deaths that the Congress alleges are proof of a brutal cover-up by Mr Chouhan and his government.
The Congress has vowed to raise demands for the removal of Mr Chouhan and also Vasundhara Raje, who has been attacked for helping disgraced cricket boss Lalit Modi at a time he was being investigated for corruption and his passport had been cancelled.
