Rahul Gandhi alleges on Tuesday alleged that CBI, ED and Income Tax cases go away only when businessmen pay money to the BJP.
“The system is very simple. They will send CBI, ED, and the Income Tax department to some businessmen. When that businessman pays some money to the BJP, the CBI, ED case will be closed. For example, the owner of the Mumbai airport got a CBI case. After a month, he handed over the port to Adani and the case was closed,” Congress MP and candidate from Kerala’s Wayanad Lok Sabha seat said while holding a roadshow in Pathanapuram.
“There are some people in every small town or village who extort money on the streets by threatening physical harm. In malayalam you call this extortion ‘kolla adikkal’ (loot), but Modi calls it electoral bonds. What a common thief is doing on the streets, the PM is doing at an international level,” he alleged.
