Raipur, November 22, 2012
Coming down
heavily on state BJP incharge JP Nadda for his statement that said - party
president Nitin Gadkari will get second term or not is an internal matter, the
Congress on Thursday said the dual face of saffron party was exposed on
corruption.
“It is an irony that on one side Nadda talks of ‘zero
tolerance’ on corruption and on the other he tries to defend his beleaguered party
chief who is facing graft allegations,” said PCC president Nandkumar Patel and
CLP leader Ravindra Choubey.
“Of course, the decision to give second term to
Gadkari is BJP’s internal affair but the graft allegations against him are
public,” they said.
“Whether it is capital investment on the name of fake
companies in his firm - Purti Power and Sugar Limited or forcible acquisition
of farmers’ lands in Vidarbha or Rs 75000 crore-irrigation scam in Maharashtra, Gadkari’s involvement in these matters
cannot be termed BJP’s internal affairs,” they said.
They indicated that despite ineligibility, Sancheti
brothers got job of commercial exploration and mining of Bhatgaon-II and
Bhatgaon-II extension coal blocks in Chhattisgarh for their closeness with
Gadkari.
