Kamal Nath allegations of scams in Shivraj Govt unfounded: BJP

Published on: 

A day after the Congress party accused Shivraj Singh Chouhan Government of indulging in several new scams in last seven months, the BJP hits back on Thursday saying Kamal Nath instead of giving accounts of his 15-months-Government is attacking the Chief Minister with unfounded charges.

Congress party on Wednesday had alleged that Shivraj Government had indulged in new scams and anomalies after coming to power early this year and listed scams like flour scam, Liquor MRP scam, fake electricity bill scam, PPE kit scam, rice scam, migrant labour food scam and so on.

While talking to media persons on Thursday, BJP State president VD Sharma slammed Kamal Nath Government over Covid-19 preparedness, saying the Government was busy in IIFA preparations despite the fact that Centre had issued advisory as early as January. Strategy against Covid-19 was chalked out when the BJP came to power, added Sharma.

Kamal Nath Government had lost power on March 20, around same time when the Covid-19 virus had registered presence in the State.

Sharma questioned Nath’s relation with Raju Montana and Gopal Reddy. 

“Is Kamal Nath not the maternal uncle of Ratul Puri named in AgustaWestland chopper scam,” questioned the BJP state president. Kamal Nath should tell everyone how much his Government befitted the media company in which Digvijay Singh’s wife had claimed a stake, Sharma said.

The BJP senior leaders further claimed that Rs 281 crore were recovered from the residences of Kamal Nath’s OSDs –Pravin Kakkad and RK Miglani, and also questioned Nath’s relations with them.
