BJP chief Amit Shah during election campaign at Kuchaman in Nagaur district on FridayNAGAUR/ SUJANGARH: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief Amit Shah fired a fresh salvo at the Congress by bringing businessman and Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra into the picture.
Addressing a public gathering at Karwasra at Nagaur district in Rajasthan on Friday, Shah said, “A renowned company received a loan of thousands of crores and its commission reached Nehru family’s son-in-law.”
Criticizing Vadra for his involvement in land scam cases, Shah said, “Today, the front page of a newspaper says that a renowned company got a loan of thousands of crores and its commission reached Nehru family’s son-in-law (Robert Vadra) with which he bought 150 hectares of land for less price and sold it at a higher rate. I want to ask Rahul Gandhi if he can answer now?"
Shah continued his attack against Congress, saying, "Rahul baba NPA cases are mounting due to the corruption raised during your party's rule in the country." Promising to bring back the money taken away by loan defaulters like Vijay Mallaya, Nirav Modi and Mehul Choksi, Shah said, "They all took loans under the nose of your (Rahul Gandhi) government, you had a firm partnership with them. When Modi government came into power, they knew it's time to flee from the country as they were afraid of being put behind bars."
"Rahul baba it was your government which kept renewing their loans. And it was us who took stringent actions against them, seizing Rs 20,000 crore property of loan defaulters," the BJP president added.
The BJP chief also stressed on 129 schemes implemented under the rule of Modi government and also heaped praises on the state’s chief minister. "Rajasthan chief minister Vasundhara Raje provided free treatment to 24 lakh people under Bhamashah Yojana, 50 lakh people were given loan under Mudra Bank scheme, gas connections were given to 50 lakh people and 13 lakh people were provided with houses and 50 lakh women were given mobiles," the parlimentarian stated.
