Madhya Pradesh Congress state spokesperson Santosh Singh Gautam takes a dig at the Bharatiya Janata Party for filing a complaint against its party leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and others over accusing the state government of indulging in corruption, calling the move ‘low-level, disgusting and oppressive.’

MP Congress takes a dig at BJP’s complaint against Priyanka Gandhi and others

Speaking to the news agency PTI, Gautam said, “After the news of the MP government taking 50 per cent commission became public, the BJP freaked out. Through the police, it lodged an FIR against top Congress leaders last night, which shows the low-level, disgusting, and oppressive display of their fury.”

On Saturday, ruling party’s legal cell supremo Nimesh Pathak registered a complaint against Congress’ Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, MP Congress chief Kamal Nath and former union minister Arun Yadav over their social media post accusing the BJP-led MP government of corruption.

Priyanka Gandhi also shared a report claiming that the union contractors from the state have written a letter to the chief justice of the high court, complaining that they receive payment only after paying 50% commission.

Taking it to X, formerly known as Twitter, she wrote in Hindi, “The people of Madhya Pradesh will remove the BJP government of 50% commission. The corrupt BJP government in Karnataka used to collect 40% commission. In Madhya Pradesh, BJP has gone ahead by breaking its record of corruption. The people of Karnataka ousted the government with 40% commission, now the people of Madhya Pradesh will remove the BJP government with 50% commission from power.”

BJP denies Congress’ allegations

However, the BJP has termed Congress leaders’ allegation false, saying that they (Congress) are ‘trying to spread lies every day.’

Addressing a press conference, State BJP president VD Sharma said, “Yesterday, the Congress leaders lied by circulating a fake letter, which was written on the name of the organisation which doesn’t exist, and the contractor and his address was also found false.”

“The BJP will take strong action against this cyber crime and Gandhi will have to answer where this letter came from,” he added.
