CM Siddaramaiah Welcomes PM Modi But Demands Answers on Electoral Bond Scam

Bengaluru: Chief Minister Siddaramaiah took to Twitter to welcome Prime Minister Narendra Modi who will be kick-starting Lok Sabha election campaign from Kalaburgi, but he asks questions and questions his silence on electoral bond scam.

Siddaramaiah demanded an answer from the PM why he is silent on this issue. The CM claimed that it is the biggest corruption scandal in the world.

In a tweet, Siddaramaiah wrote, “ Welcome to Karnataka, Prime Minister narendramodi

. Please answer why is BJP4India silent about the electoral bond scam – the biggest corruption scandal in the world?

For a decade, you held power, promising to bring back black money from Swiss Bank, eliminate black money via demonetisation, claiming “Na Khaunga, Na Khane Dunga”, and being the so-called ‘Chowkidar of the Nation’. Now, it is time for you to address the issues surrounding the electoral bond scam.

Despite the Supreme Court’s order, why is the State Bank of India (SBI) hesitant to provide complete information? If the sale and purchase of electoral bonds were conducted legally, why is SBI concealing information? Who is exerting pressure on SBI? Prime Minister Narendra Modi, please respond.

If we look at the information released by the Election Commission that the media is scrutinising, it appears that the Union BJP Government is blackmailing businessmen. When we look at the dates of IT, ED, and CBI raids on these businessmen and the dates they purchased electoral bonds, it seems like a clear case of blackmail.

Is the Union Government misusing its investigative agencies to extort donations? Is the electoral bond a political weapon of mass extortion in the hands of BJP? Prime Minister Narendra Modi, please respond.

Based on the emerging information, it seems that a significant number of participants in the electoral bond scam are from infrastructure and pharmaceutical firms. How reliable are the roads, bridges, and buildings constructed by such fraudulent organisations? How safe are the medicines produced by these corrupt entities, BJP? Shouldn’t you, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, be the one to answer these questions?

The Supreme Court, by thoroughly exposing the electoral bond scam, has raised suspicions among every citizen about the misuse of their tax money, and people strongly believe that the Union BJP government is fully involved in this fraud.

I insist that the Supreme Court should establish a Special Investigation Committee to probe the electoral bond scam and, until then, freeze the bank accounts of BJP to clear these doubts.”
