Cong has no moral right to speak of corruption: BJP on Yeddy

April 9, 2016

New Delhi, Apr 9: BJP today hit back at Congress over its "tainted" leaders charge, saying the party whose leadership is out on bail in a case of alleged fraud and ran a "corrupt" regime for ten years has no moral right to talk of corruption.Yeddyurappa

The party claimed that the court has given a clean chit to former Karnataka chief minister B S Yeddyurappa and Congress should not make "baseless" allegations. BJP also asserted that there was probity in its government and it was transparent.

Refuting allegations that BJP is trying to bring down Congress governments, party national secretary Shrikant Sharma said Congress is losing its base across the country under Sonia Gandhi and is facing a leadership crisis.

Its governments are falling due to internal crisis and 'revolts' within, he claimed.

"The party whose President and Vice President are out on bail in a Rs 5,000 crore fraud case, those who ran a corrupt government for the last ten years have no moral right to talk on corruption," he claimed.

On Yeddyurappa, Sharma said, "The court has given a clean chit to B S Yeddyurappa and Congress is trying to make baseless charges."

The BJP leader also said that Congress should stop blaming the BJP for bringing down its governments in states as it was due to problems within that party.

"There is a leadership crisis in Congress under Sonia Gandhi as it is losing its base everywhere. Of all the states, Congress is left in power in only seven of them, of which there is an internal revolt in three," he said, referring to Arunachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Karnataka.

On Union Minister Y S Chowdary's issue, Sharma said, "The law will take its own course". A Hyderabad court has issued non-bailable warrant in a case filed by a Mauritius-based bank for alleged default of repayment of loan.

Asked about Pakistan, the BJP leader said the problems are 68 years old and the Modi government is only trying to set things right.

He said the issues have arisen due to "wrong policies" initiated by the Jawaharlal Nehru government after independence and "that country would not have been in existence had it not been Nehru's craving for power".

"Pakistan for the first time has accepted that its land has been used for terror activities," he said, adding that it was the reason why its JIT was allowed to visit here so that it acts against the perpetrators of Pathankot terror attack.

On the issue of not allowing terror and talks together, he said the talks between the two NSAs are also on terror.

Congress today attacked BJP for appointing "tainted" leaders like B S Yeddyurappa and Keshav Prasad Maurya to lead the party in Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh, saying it "exposes" the promise of probity made by the ruling party.

Because Congress can not understand what is corruption, no they know how to do it.

ongress has no right to speak corruption.
But BJP has the right to commit the corruption

Udupi, Jan 16: Admar Mutt Junior seer Eshapriya Theertha Swami is all set to take over the reins of Krishna Mutt during the 250th Paryayotsava, scheduled to be held on January 17 and 18.

The uniqueness lies in the fact that the Admar Mutt, one of the Ashta Mutts of Krishna Mutt in this Temple town Udupi, ushers in the new Paryaya cycle (32nd). The Paryaya of outgoing seer Vidyadheesha Theertha Swami of Palimaru Mutt, Admar’s dwandwa (associate) mutt, marks the end of the cycle of eight mutts.

Under the system initiated by the Madhwa philosopher and saint Madwacharya, the seers of Ashta mutts would take turns to worship Lord Krishna every two months. Seer Vadiraja (1481-1601) ended the system and introduced the system of f running the temple administration once in two years.

Bengaluru, Jan 20: The suspense over chief minister BS Yediyurappa expanding his council of ministers is set to continue until after he returns from his trip to attend the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland.

Yediyurappa, who heads a 10-member delegation to the Swiss ski resort, left on Sunday. Prior to his departure, he told reporters cabinet expansion will happen only after his return on January 24. “I discussed the issue with [BJP] national president Amit Shah for 30 minutes or so. He has given a positive response and I will expand the cabinet within two days after my return,” Yediyurappa said.

But sources said Shah, during his visit to Hubballi on Saturday, had indicated the exercise is likely to be delayed further as the central leadership will be busy with the assembly elections in Delhi. “Indications are there is no possibility of expanding the cabinet until February 11 when the electoral process for the Delhi elections ends,” said a source.

The development has obviously left ministerial aspirants, especially defectors from Congress and JD(S) who were re-elected on BJP tickets last month, restive. Moreover, while Yediyurappa has promised ministerial berths to all MLAs who switched to the BJP from Congress and JD(S), sources say Shah is only in favour of inducting six defectors (11 of whom won MLA seats on saffron party tickets in the byelections) into the cabinet.

“Shah’s advice to Yediyurappa is to strike a balance between defectors and loyalists. His concern is loyalists should not be left disappointed, while justice should be served to the defectors as well,” said a BJP functionary.

Meanwhile, KS Eshwarappa, senior party functionary and minister for rural development, said the BJP would never let down the defectors. “The party is indebted to them and I am sure they will all be rewarded,” he said.

BC Patil, one of the defectors, said some of them had met Shah in one-on-one meetings in Hubballi. “It was more a courtesy call and the issue of cabinet expansion didn’t come up during the meeting,” he said.
