ITV Network is hosting a ‘Manch’ today, Monday (July 29), to address the nation’s most pressing issues. The event, taking place at Le Meridien Hotel in Connaught Place, New Delhi, began at 10 am and will continue throughout the day.
During “Corruption Ki Aar Paar,” Congress MP Udit Raj sharply criticized the government, accusing the BJP of enacting laws like the Electoral Bond law to conceal corruption. He claimed, “No parliament has made a law against theft like BJP brought the Electoral Bond law.” Raj further alleged, “BJP’s corruption is clearly visible,” and labeled the party as a “washing machine of corruption,” asserting, “BJP patronizes the corrupt” and “likes corruption for power.” He also accused the BJP of providing a safe haven for corrupt individuals, including Ajit Pawar and Praful Patel, and predicted a backlash in the 2024 elections due to the corruption.
SP spokesperson Anurag Bhadoria launched a vigorous attack on the BJP, alleging that the party has failed to meet its promises to women, farmers, and students. He criticized PM Modi for remaining silent about the issues faced by the daughters of wrestlers and accused the BJP of only addressing problems after they arise. Bhadoria remarked, “BJP has forgotten all the promises it made” and accused the government of failing the youth and women while favoring the corrupt. He also questioned why the ED does not target the BJP and suggested the agency overlooks the ruling party’s misdeeds.
In response, BJP spokesperson Ajay Alok defended his party, asserting that the public has spoken through their votes and that the BJP has won electoral victories. He stated, “The public has given an answer to everyone in the elections,” and highlighted that the ED and CBI have seized Rs 1.84 lakh crore over the past seven years. Alok challenged Congress and SP on corruption issues, claiming that Congress is “the mother of corruption” and labeling both Congress and SP as parties of scams. He concluded that the Modi government is focused on development, not destruction, and asserted that “the corrupt are going to jail” under his administration.
