The ruling CPI(M) in Kerala on Wednesday made a scathing attack against the BJP and the Congress over the electoral bonds issue, saying that it has become one of the most “notorious corruption” cases the country has ever seen.
The Left party said that the BJP would never have thought that the details of those who bought their electoral bonds would come out and accused them of accepting funds from black money holders and looters in the name of bonds.
Addressing a press conference here, party state secretary M V Govindan hailed the strong stand taken by the Supreme Court that the people of the country have the right to know who bought the electoral bonds of political parties.
He alleged that the whopping Rs 8,251 crore, received by the BJP via electoral bonds, was amassed by threatening people and institutions using the power of the party-led government at the Centre.
