Bhagwat, Shah should ask Chouhan to resign: Congress
Bhopal, July 12
The Congress here on Sunday
said RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat and BJP president Amit Shah should ask
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan to resign in the
light of Vyapam scam.
Terming Bhagwat's arrival in Bhopal on
Friday and Shah's scheduled for Monday, as a move to cover up for the
loss of image due to Vyapam scam, Congress general secretary Mohan
Prakash, who is also in charge of the party's affairs in Madhya Pradesh,
said they should ask Chouhan to resign on "moral grounds".
"Sensing
the possibility of being sent to jail, members of the Rashtriya
Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) are scared
since the Supreme Court of India has ordered the Central Bureau of
Investigation (CBI) to probe the Vyapam scam," Prakash told reporters
here.
"Vyapam is such a scam which doesn't just involve financial irregularities but murders too," he added.
The
Supreme Court last week handed over the investigation into the scam to
the CBI. It was earlier being probed by a Special Investigation Team
under the supervision of the Madhya Pradesh High Court.
