Congress Looted 'Rs 48,20,69,00,000' With Its Corruption: BJP Alleges In 'Congress Files'

BJP has alleged Congress of corruption of around Rs 48,20,69,00,000 during its tenure, in its first episode of 'Congress Files'.

In a fresh round of attack, Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) brought up corruption allegations against Congress during its tenure by releasing the first episode of 'Congress Files'. The BJP brought up corruption cases such as the Coalgate scam, the 2G Spectrum case, the Commonwealth scam, etc in its video.

The BJP took to Twitter to share the first episode with the caption, "The first episode of Congress Files, see how one after the other corruption and scams took place under the Congress rule".

The video kicked off post the introduction title plate with a message reading "Congress means corruption". It then stated, "Congress has looted Rs 48,20,69,00,00,000 from the public in 70 years of its rule. That money could have been utilised for so many useful areas of security and development. Using this much amount, 24 INS Vikrant, 300 Rafale jets, and 1000 Mangal Missions could have been made or purchased. But the country had to bear the cost of Congress' corruption, and it lagged behind in the race of progress."

BJP continued the attack on Congress while terming the 2004-2014 decade as the "Lost Decade". 

The video then went on to claim, "The government led by Manmohan Singh turned a blind eye to all the corruption that kept on happening under his rule. In those days, papers were filled with the news of corruption, looking at which the heads of every Indian hung in shame.  Coal scam of Rs 1.86 lakh crore, 2G Spectrum scam of Rs 1.76 lakh crore, MNREGA scam of Rs 10 lakh crore, Commonwealth scam of Rs 70,000 crore, a bribe of Rs 362 crores in the helicopter deal with Italy, 12 crores bribe for the Chairman of Railway Board."

At the end of the video, the caption in video read, "This is only the jhanki (trailer) of Congress' corruption, the movie is still not over."

Earlier, Congress launched an attack on BJP over the Adani row while releasing multiple sets of questions under its campaign named 'Hum Adani Ke Hain Kaun'.
