Congress President Rahul Gandhi launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and asked, why CBI director was removed overnight? He also said PM Modi has panicked over CBI inquiry and called the removal of the CBI chief as an insult to the constitution.
Speaking at a press conference today, Rahul Gandhi said, “We are in opposition, and we are fulfilling our responsibility letting people know about the scams. And we will continue to do so in future.”
“Appointment and removal of CBI director has to be done by a committee of three people comprising the Prime Minister, CJI and Leader of Opposition. But the CBI director was removed at 2 am in the night. This is an Insult to the constitution, the CJI, and the people of India. The whole act was illegal,” said Congress President Rahul Gandhi while addressing a public gathering in Rajasthan’s Sikar.
He questioned Prime Minister’s silence regarding the matter. And also expressed that for a day he wants to become a journalist and ask the premier only three questions. He further said, “I promise, he will probably flee from the spot if I ask three questions to PM Modi over Rafale deal”.
He also said that the country would not spare the PM. He asserted that the citizens of this country are intelligent enough to does understand the nefarious activities of the BJP led Modi government .
Talking about the Rafale deal, he said, “It is country’s money, not Anil Ambani’s money.” He further added, “Country will not spare Narendra Modi. Congress, Opposition will not spare Narendra Modi.”
He also requested media to ask question Finance Minister Arun Jaitley about his daughter and her alleged linkup regarding with Mehul Choksi and PNB fraud.
Gandhi said, “PM seems to be in a panic. He is scared that he indulged in corruption and he could get caught.”
Raising question over the appointment of CBI director, Gandhi said, “The charge of CBI has been given to a man who has cases registered against him. Why? Because the PM can control him and that no inquiry can be conducted into Rafale.”
The Gandhi scion went on to add, “Narendra Modi made his image as a Chowkidaar, but he was involved in corruption. He knows if the CBI probe begins, it will be an end of his rule and he will get caught.”
