New Delhi, Sept 19: The BJP on Wednesday made a rather unusual but blistering attack on Congress saying there was a "money trail" through Hawala route linking the flow of huge currencies to the AICC.

"Congress and corruption have become synonymous...unaccounted cash, Hawala transactions and corrupt deals...these are the pillars on which the Congress party sits," BJP spokesman Sambit Patra told reporters here.

"All India Congress Committee used to get money not in terms of lakhs and crores....but these money used to go in kilo grams in weight. We have proof on how money was transferred. We will present documents," he said referring to IT department papers.

Mr Patra said BJP chief Amit Shah had said earlier that the Congress party was using the state government of Karnataka as its 'ATM' - only to withdraw the huge amount and use them for political purpose and also for "Gandhi dynasty".

There were about transaction of about Rs 600 crore, he said and citing old media reports, he further claimed money trail also led to the offices of 'SG and RG'.
"We have hawala network proof....the case is already on. Congress leader (state Irrigation and Medical Education Minister) D K Shivakumar's residence was raided in Karnataka. There were some raids in Delhi also. They were officials in Delhi Karnataka Bhavan," Mr Patra said "three Safdarjaung Enclave and Krishnanagar flats keys were recovered".

There was also recovery of Rs six crore from these flats and investigations and 'confessional statements' reveal "how Hawala money used to go to the Congress party and their leaders".

"One such official always used to accompany D K Shivakumar during his visit to Delhi," he alleged.

He said the cases pertaining to Shivakumar now is clear is actually linked to Congress headquarters and the top leaders.

Incidentally, the allegation against Congress came on a day the principal opposition party stepped up attack against the government on Rafale deal and a party delegation met the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) seeking an "urgent probe" into the purchase of 36 Rafale fighter jets.

Bengaluru, Mar 27: A 65-year-old coronavirus patient who died in Karnataka this morning after apparently contracting the infection on a train ride has raised concern about community transmission of the highly contagious disease.
The man, the 60th coronavirus patient in Karnataka, died in Tumakuru. It is not known for certain how he caught the virus. The Karnataka Health Department has posted a notice on Twitter asking whoever travelled with him on train to come forward.

He had no history of recent foreign travel but had apparently traveled to Delhi on March 5 by Sampark Kranti Express and returned on March 11.

On March 7, he arrived at Delhi's Nizamuddin station and participated in an event at Jamia Masjid.

The man took a train back on March 11 and arrived at Yeshwantpur in Bengaluru. From there, he took a bus on March 14 to his hometown Sira.

He first showed symptoms of COVID-19 on March 18 and was taken to a private hospital. He was sent home with medicines but his condition worsened.

On March 23, he was admitted to a district hospital, but checked himself out against all advice and went to a private hospital. When his health showed signs of deterioration, he was again sent to the district hospital, where he tested positive for coronavirus yesterday. He died around 10.30 am today.

The health department has since traced 24 people who came in direct contact with him and are so, in the high-risk category. Thirteen are in hospital and eight have tested negative.

"All passengers who had travelled with him on the train are being traced," K Rakesh Kumar, Deputy Commissioner, Tumakuru, was quoted as telling news agency ANI.

A 70-year old woman and a 76-year old man had died of coronavirus or COVID-19 earlier in Karnataka.

India has over 700 coronavirus cases, including 17 deaths.
