    BrastaJP is biggest junk and thrash dealer in India. Whatever junked or thrashed by Congress have high demand from this 40 percent brasta party by paying high price for the rejected items using cores of money looted from common people and 40 percent of money collected for every projects . In other words 40 percent of budgeted money for govt projects will be looted by these netas for the party funds and their families. Bhaktas will be their voting machine forver in the name of religion and cow dung politics. Poor will remain poor forever till to the grave. High time this so called educated class bigots should understand precarious situation of their mother land being raped on daily basis by this brasta party.
