Defence Minister Rajnath Singh addressing a public rally at Kagwad in Belagavi district, came down heavily on the Congress alleging that Congress disrespected the Constitution of India by giving reservation on the basis of religion. In 1975, enforced emergency by making amendments in constitution in arbitrary ways lakhs of people were sent to jail. BJP can never commit such a sin whether it gets power or not.
Besides, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh said that former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi had said that corruption is so much that if I send 100 paise, people get only 14 paise, but under the leadership of PM Modi, if we send 10 thousand rupees to the accounts of farmers, they get only 10 thousand.
Targeting the Congress, Rajnath Singh said that corruption has increased whenever the Congress government has come to the power. Congress government remained at the center and every Congress government has been accused of corruption, some ministers of their cabinet had to go to jail, but for 9 years there is a BJP government in our country….Neither our Prime Minister nor any of the ministers have any taint of corruption over them.
