"In the BJP, corruption has become a way of functioning," Singhvi told reporters here.
"Instead of (his promise of) 'na khaunga, na khane dunga', (won't indulge in corruption and won't allow others to indulge in corruption)...the prime minister and his BJP colleagues have become chief collaborators in corruption," he said.
"Bribery, horse-trading, crony capitalism have become common words. Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, ease of doing business means ease of doing business for the family and friends of BJP," the Congress spokesperson said.
He also raised the issue of SEBI notice to Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani over trading of shares in a company, and the alleged conflict of interest of Shaurya Doval, son of National Security Adviser Ajit Doval.
"(Patidar quota agitation leader) Hardik Patel has alleged that attempts were made to buy him off, Congress MLAs were offered bribes to switch sides during the Rajya Sabha election of Ahmed Patel and recently PAAS convener Narendra Patel has alleged that he was offered money to join the BJP," Singhvi said.
"Gujarat has lagged behind in education, healthcare and social indicators," he alleged.
