Any conspiracy by the BJP to weaken India's democratic values will not succeed, Congress leader Randeep Surjewala said on Thursday after a Supreme Court ruling on the appointments of the Chief Election Commissioner and election commissioners.

BJP govt trying to cover up PSI scam in Karnataka: Randeep Singh Surjewala

The Congress on Wednesday accused the ruling BJP in Karnataka of attempting to 'cover up' the Police Sub-Inspector recruitment scam in which already an ADGP rank officer has been arrested. The grand old party said the prime accused in the case, R D Patil has written to the Lokayukta alleging that the investigating officer of the scam had demanded Rs three crore to shut the case and already Rs 76 lakh has been paid. Noting that the letter to the Lokayukta is in public domain, it demanded the resignation of Karnataka Home Minister Araga Jnanendra and a probe by the Chief Justice of the Karnataka High Court into the scam. This letter by RD Patil clearly accuses the investigating officer of demanding Rs 3 crore of bribe. Rs 76 lakh of bribe in the PSI scam as per the letter has been delivered to the investigating officer. All this with a view to dilute and finish the entire PSI scam, the Congress National General Secretary and Karnataka in charge Randeep Singh Surjewala, said in a ...
