"Yesterday the BJP leader (Swaraj) stood up in Parliament and talked about corruption. But she will not speak about Karnataka. She will not speak about her friends (an apparent reference to Bellary's Reddy brothers). BJP people are not able to see corruption in Karnataka," he said addressing an election meeting here.
Rahul's attack on Swaraj comes a day after the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha lashed out at the UPA government in the House and later accused Sonia Gandhi of "instigating" her party members to create disturbance during her speech.
Taking on BJP, Rahul said the party would not say a Chief Minister went to jail. "They will not say Reddy brothers who they sold the entire state to....They talk about corruption," he said.
