Congress drags BJP-RSS leaders into Vyapam scam
New Delhi, July 15
The Congress on Wednesday
said the alleged kingpin of the Vyapam scam in Madhya Pradesh shared the
ill-gotten money with top BJP and RSS leaders, including RSS
Sarsanghchalak Suresh Soni and union minister Dharmendra Pradhan.
"Vypam's
ill-gotten money soiled in the blood of innocents was shared by certain
BJP-RSS leaders," Congress spokesperson Randeep Singh Surjewala said at
a press conference here.
Displaying several documents, Surjewala
claimed that Vyapam scam kingpin Sudhir Sharma, along with former
Madhya Pradesh minister Lakshmikant Sharma, shared the money they made
from the racket with Pradhan, Soni, BJP's Rajya Sabha MP Anil Dave, BJP
vice president Prabhat Jha and his sons Tushmul Jha and A. Jha.
"We
demand the immediate resignation of Chouhan and Dharmendra Pradhan and
action against Prabhat Jha and others," the Congress leader added.
"No
independent, fair, free and impartial investigation to find the kingpin
and the guilty in the Vyapam scam is possible until Shivraj Singh
Chouhan is removed as chief minister of Madhya Pradesh," Surjewala said.
