“Our target is corruption not individuals. Congress has been a champion of corruption and it is natural that it will be held accountable. Charges have been framed in many such cases like coal scam and 2G scam and he is himself an accused in the National Herald case. He should not play victim and rather answer questions,” said BJP national secretary Shrikant Sharma.
Sharma said Rahul Gandhi brushed aside a BJP MP’s letter to probe agencies that his alleged links with accused in the CWG and VVIP chopper scams be checked, saying “I’m always being targeted, happy to be targeted.” The BJP, Sharma said, came to power on the plank of making India corruption-free and is now working to eradicate corruption.
