Electoral Bonds ‘world’s biggest scam’: Rahul Gandhi
Hyderabad: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has said that the electoral bonds scheme is the “world’s biggest scam” and claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has “his people” in the election commission.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Rahul Gandhi addressing a rally on the outskirts of Hyderabad termed the Enforcement Directorate as “Extortion Directorate.”
“What earlier used to be called the Enforcement Directorate, has become the Extortion Directorate today. BJP is running the world’s biggest washing machine,” he said.
“The country’s most corrupt ministers and most corrupt leaders stand with Narendra Modi. Narendra Modi has his people in the Election Commission also,” he added.
The list of electoral bonds scheme shows that a company is threatened by the Central Bureau of Investigation and then the company hands over crores of rupees to the BJP. The company then gets infrastructure projects worth crores of rupees, he said.
The bank accounts of Congress have been frozen, but the Congress does not fear the BJP, he said.
Congress has defeated BJP’s “B team” (BRS) in Telangana and it is now going to defeat the “A team” in Delhi (BJP) in the coming elections, he said.
Further charging that the BJP wants to scrap the Constitution, he claimed that the Congress would never let that happen.
“This fight is for safeguarding the Constitution and democracy. Narendra Modi works for three-four per cent of people. He has the media, money, intelligence agencies, CBI , ED and everything. We have truth and people’s love. Truth and people achieve victory,” he said.
Rahul Gandhi also claimed that 30 farmers commit suicide in the country every day. He said Modi has waived loans to the tune of Rs 16 lakh crore of the rich, while not even one rupee of farmers’ loans was waived.
