Bhopal:
Congress activists in Madhya Pradesh have been given a new task --
to find out evidence of corruption against leaders of the ruling
Bharatiya Janata Party in the state.
Congress activists across the state have been asked to get the
details of corruption as well as criminal cases pending against
BJP leaders since the party came to power in 2003.
The Congress has issued a two-page, 13-point form to all party
members to find out about the BJP leaders' property, their actual
economic condition in 2003 and now, and the criminal cases against
them.
"They (BJP leaders) always claim that they are very clean in terms
of corruption and crime but practically it is not the fact. So by
this exercise we want to know about their actual status," Congress
spokesman J.P. Dhanopia told IANS.
"We have also demanded proof from our cadres and leaders about a
particular person they list on their form. In this exercise, even
if we come across 100 such leaders across the state, it would be a
big achievement. All this will help us in fight against BJP and
their anti-corruption cry in future," he added.
However, BJP leaders are not much afraid of the Congress
initiative.
"Our state president Prabhat Jha has already told to our party
leaders to declare their assets so there is nothing to worry on
Congress plan," BJP spokesman Hitesh Bajpai told IANS.
The BJP leader even termed it a healthy competition and most
welcome.
"There is nothing wrong in such an exercise as we live a public
life and nothing is hidden," he added.
