BJP running most corrupt govts in states: Rahul Gandhi

Posted: Jan 08, 2012 at 1820 hrs IST

Gorakhpur Attacking BJP, Rahul Gandhi on Sunday said the Opposition party is taking corrupt ministers thrown out by others and was running the "most corrupt" governments in states ruled by it.

"Ministers are being removed and the BJP is taking them. They took Babu Singh Kushwaha, who is the most corrupt minister. He is amongst the most corrupt ministers. BJP took a trip across India against corruption," he said in an apparent

reference to L K Advani's rath yatra.

"But they run the most corrupt governments in Karnataka, Uttarakhand, Gujarat and Jharkhand and here (in UP) they have taken Babu Singh Kushwaha," he said.

Yesterday, Rahul had claimed that Kushwaha had approached Congress first after being sacked by Chief Minister Mayawati but his plea to join the party fold was turned down.

He also attacked Mayawati alleging that thousands of crores for MNREGA sent to Uttar Pradesh was eaten by the "magical elephant" sitting in Lucknow, in an obvious reference to BSP's election symbol.

"The magical elephant built by Mayawati is eating people's money," he said.

allegation on BJP,corrupt govts by y.k.rao on 03 Feb 2012

If you abuse a pious woman, she will calmly go away, but if you do it to a prostitute,she accuses us that we are prostitutes. It is strange that a person whose pocket is full of Quattochis, kalamadis, Rajas pretends honesty. Are people in this country blind and deaf? Does he think that the recent judgement cancelling telecon licences show honesty of the govt which gave such licences earlier?

Instead of pointing at others and waste time on corruption topics. Give priority other important thing. People need jobs, poor need 1 day meal daily, basic necessity (dirty street, rats pondering, sewage overflow after rains, hospital dirty & noisy, ill legal abortion, female fetus(this murders are more horrifying even more than corruption) no education primary class no fans there are more issues need priority). If there is no starvation. People will not be corrupt. Learn to forgive. Live for today. Corruption will not go rubbing it off. People need inner healing, Awareness how to stop curruption. To stop corruption now we start with our children, home, in school, colleges so our furture will be better. Just work for your country progress. First thing first.

Rahul by sp on 09 Jan 2012

To clear the air, why does Rahul not tell the people the real truth about Bofors, HDW deal, Rajiv's Swiss Bank a/cs, Sonia's links to Quattorocchi? And the exact amount Rahul/Sonia/Vadra made through MMS/PC/A.Raja in 2G scam?

If the congress UPA were good for the people and the democracy they would have never been imitated the corrupted BJP.example the case of 2G spectrum scandal etc., knowingly doing and repeating the same fraud will be never forgivable, be ready to accept the punishment, So Gandhi speak out the truth for the congress and UPA as a whole which cann´t be redeemable and salvate. His congress and he will be disqualified by the people on the election and in the future as well.

What else is UPA doing at centre> It is no way better & loaded with full scandals & corruption to core.What right has Rahul to say so for states about BJP?

corruption by kk on 09 Jan 2012

Funds have been released by the Central Govt.. How about the control part by way of audit by the CAG, to check its proper use. It is the responsibility of the Controlling/ disbersing authority. If that authority is weak & donot perform efficiently, it is but the responsibility of that authority.

bjp running corrupt govts in states.... by veekay on 08 Jan 2012

But the INC has jailed it's corrupt, while BJP is protecting it's corrupt right from bangaroo, Judeo to Reddys of Bellery, Raman of Chattisgarh, Eraddy of Karnataka, Modi of Gujrat and Chohan of MP. This is the difference my friend.

Rahul should shut up by Chaitanya on 08 Jan 2012

Instead of blaming BJP Rahul should tell the nation how much he inherited from his father whose name as a swiss money account holder was published by a swiss magazine in 1991. His family has ruined this country by siphoning off its wealth and his party's ministers are still making money. The Gandhi's have also communalised the politics in this country by repeatedly pandering to muslims especially during time of elections. He should keep quite or else he will meet the same fate as that of Sharad pawar who was recently slapped.

BJP Running Most Corrupt Govets in State by krish on 08 Jan 2012

Rahul should look at the mother of corruption in UPA 2. He never opened his mouth against corruption of congress bigwigs.People are more concerned about UPA2 corruption and the more he talks about others corruption, the more problem he would put himself into.

worse orator by sanjiv kumar on 08 Jan 2012

He shud 1st look at his govt conduct at the center and then speak or shud keep silent.Their govt is accredited with running the country by blackmailing their allies and looting every institution of this country.

BJP running 'most corrupt' governments in states by Kumar on 08 Jan 2012

With all respects to Rahul Gandhi but should not wild statements, saying that BJP running 'most corrupt' governments in states. For Rahul's information BJP is running these Big States very Effeciently.These also happened to be Big states. Rahul is lucky to have made Very Easy entry to the politics & should thank the Media coverage he gives on getting for his every move, as is controlled by the UPA/Govt in power Unfortunate the other parties do Not get their share of media coverage

BJP running 'most corrupt' governments by Rajeev on 08 Jan 2012

Dear Rahul Bhai, We Know some people in BJP are corrupt and have criminal records.But so the case in Congress, BSP, SP & so on.Hope you have seen a report indicating number of people with criminal records in various parties. As such we are left with little choice. People are looking at you with great hope. Please start cleaning your own party. This might involve some pain but I feel in the end at least we'll have atleast one good clean party.

Introspect yourself as well by Bharat on 08 Jan 2012

To quote Rajkumar "JIN KE GHAR SHEESHE KE HOTE HAI WOH DOOSRO KE GHAR PE PATHAR NAHI FEKA KARTE". All the big scams in the history of India has one thing in common that is Congress govt. in the centre from Bofors to 2 and 3G scams

corruption in non congress governments by satya on 08 Jan 2012

Rahul Gandhi's comments on corruption in BJP ruled states makes amusing but interesting reading. Belonging to a party which has scaled new heights in corruption; thereby bringing disrepute and ridicule to our country; he has to turn the mirror inwards and set his own house in order first. This does not in any way lessen the mess that the BJP party is in ; on the matter of corruption. It is disgraceful that both the national parties are trying to outdo one another in slander mongering rather than trying seriously to tackle a grave issue affecting all the citizens adversely; day in and day out.

hindustan by indian on 08 Jan 2012

Rahul Gandhi should first focus on corruption within his own party, before targeting BJP.

rahul by sp on 09 Jan 2012

Before that look at Sonia, Vadra also. from where do they get money to maintain the lifestyle they are leading?

India by Satish Chandra on 08 Jan 2012

Why Were Iraq's Aircraft & Tanks Behaving Erratically During the Gulf Wars? During the first Gulf War, it was reported that Iraq's fighter planes that rose to meet the American attackers were just flying randomly instead of attacking the attackers. In the second Gulf War, therefore, Iraq simply buried its fighter planes in the sand or sent them to shelter in Iran. During the second Gulf War, it was reported that Iraqi tanks defending Baghdad were firing randomly instead of hitting the advancing American tanks. Both these phenomena were due to the fact that microwave signals from U. S. satellites can hack into and operate any digital circuitry and the Iraqi inability to control its aircraft and tanks was due to such hacking. When an Indian Sukhoi-30MKI crashed on December 13 '11, the pilots who ejected safely reported that they were having difficulty controlling the plane and struggled to control it for 20 minutes before ejecting. This is what I have written about that:- "When I say the new Chief of Air Staff, N. A. K. Browne, is a CIA-RAW man, I mean he literally sits at CIA-supplied terminals to participate in crimes against India. More than a thousand Indian Air Force aircraft have crashed since 1970, the vast majority of the crashes caused by microwaves from U. S. satellites which can hack into and operate any digital equipment. In his first week in office as Chief of Air Staff, Browne caused two Indian Air Force fighter planes to crash with microwaves from satellites, to give a boost to his bid to buy worse than worthless foreign aircraft for several tens of billions of dollars of which he will get a hefty cut along with the Defence Minister and the Italian woman who gets the largest cut. The Sukhoi crash on Dec. 13 '11 and the grounding of the Sukhoi fleet has been caused 2 days ahead of the purchase decision as the purchase was made impossible by my opposition to it. See IndianAirForcePilotsMurderDOTblogspotDOTcom . " The United States can similarly disable air defence missiles and has repeatedly disabled Pakistan's air defences. It even disabled Pakistan's nuclear warheads during the Kargil conflict as Gen. Musharraf has admitted. I have repeatedly pointed to this peril from microwave signals from U. S. satellites as in my addendum dated February 26, 2006 titled "National security crisis due to microwaves from satellites" in my blog titled "Nuclear Supremacy For India Over U.S." which can be found from a Yahoo/Google search with the title and have provided solutions to this problem. Despite all this, the criminals of the Indian government -- the Cabinet Committee on Security -- on January 5 '12 approved the purchase of one and a half billion dollars worth of worse than worthless French air-to-air missiles for the worse than worthless Mirage 2000 fighters.
