BJP slams Cong, says strict action against corruption is Modi's guarantee

The BJP on Tuesday targeted the Congress and its allies, saying they have spread the "disease of corruption" against which a movement has to be started not just by the government but also by the people.

Is this Modi's guarantee for MP: Congress slams BJP for picking Mohan Yadav

The Congress on Tuesday attacked the BJP for picking Mohan Yadav as the next chief minister of Madhya Pradesh, alleging that there are many serious allegations against him including large-scale manipulation in the Ujjain masterplan.

BJD, Congress, BJP in slugfest over I-T raids on Odisha distilleries

With the income-tax department seizing over Rs 350-crore unaccounted cash during a series of raids on distilleries, three major political parties in Odisha have virtually entered into a slugfest, accusing each other of patronising illegality in the country-liquor trade in the state. While the opposition BJP on Monday organised demonstrations in all sub-divisions, the ruling BJD held a press conference in a bid to expose the "evil design" of the saffron party. The Congress, in a statement, blamed both the BJD and BJP and claimed that it was unnecessarily dragged into the controversy. The income-tax department continued its searches in different places linked to an Odisha-based distillery group on charges of tax evasion for the sixth consecutive day on Monday, recovering unaccounted cash to the tune of Rs 353 crore so far. Responding to a call by BJP state president Manmohan Samal, party leaders and workers took part in the protests across the state, holding placards and banners. Th

Dheeraj Sahu row: Amit Shah chides INDIA parties for not suspending Cong MP

Days after income tax sleuths seized Rs 351 crore during raids against a distillery firm owned by a Congress MP's family, Home Minister Amit Shah Monday chided the INDIA bloc parties for not suspending the leader from Jharkhand. "Just now, at an MP's place in Jharkhand, I don't want to say which party he is from but the entire world knows about it, so much cash has been found that even bank's cashiers say that they have never seen so much of cash," Shah said while replying to a debate on two bills related to Jammu and Kashmir in the Rajya Sabha. He, however, did not name either the MP or the party that he belonged to. Shah said it has been five days of continuous counting and 27 cash machines deployed for counting have also "heated up", indicating that the counting of cash was still on. "None of the Ghamandia alliance (in an apparent reference to the opposition INDIA bloc) has neither commented on it nor suspended him. Not a single one (of them)," Shah said. The searches that bega
