Authenticity of documents against Raje not verified: BJP


New Delhi, Jun 19 (IANS): The BJP on Friday stood firmly behind Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje, saying that the authenticity of the documents being cited to show that she had helped former IPL commissioner Lalit Modi are not verified.

"Vasundhara has never denied her close family relations with Lalit Modi and the validity of those documents which were produced is yet to be verified," BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi said at a press conference.

Raje is embroiled in a controversy over allegations that she testified in favour of Lalit Modi's British immigration application in 2011 and Modi made investments in her son's company.

"It is not corruption either technically or legally...The Opposition is not able to debate with the government on positive issues, so they are blowing this out of proportion. I want to ask under which government's rule did the Lalit Modi corruption case was discovered," said Trivedi.

Rejecting the Opposition's demand for Raje's resignation, Trivedi said there was no truth in the charges against Raje.

"Is there any substantive evidence? Is there any corruption?" he added.

"As far as Dushyant Singh's case is concerned, all these facts given in I.T. returns and election affidavit are already in the public domain," he added.

Dushyant is a BJP MP from Jhalawar-Baran constituency in Rajasthan.

The BJP continued to defend Sushma Swaraj as well for her alleged role in extending help to the former IPL chief procure travelling documents.

"Our president has already spoken on the issue and that's the stand of the party. Union ministers Arun Jaitley and Rajnath Singh have also clarified the stand. After their comments, there is nothing more to add," Trivedi told media persons when asked about Swaraj's alleged help to Lalit Modi.

Sushma Swaraj had allegedly helped Lalit Modi in procuring documents to travel to Portugal last year for his cancer-stricken wife's treatment.

Earlier in the day, Raje cancelled her visit to Anandpur Sahib in Punjab, citing health reasons.

She was to share the dias with BJP president Amit Shah and Home Minister Rajnath Singh there.

However, a BJP leader told IANS on the condition of anonymity that she cancelled her programme after a message from Amit Shah's office.

    Implied Message: Vasundhara Raje is our own, we have part taken in all that she did. Don't go to verify or investigate else we will trap ourselves.
    We will only investigate those are not ours and tell/show the public that, we fight corruption!

    BJP knows that Vasundara Raje and her son are involved with Lalit Modi fiasco and the party is giving the reason of verification for diversion and to earn more time.

    Reporter: "Your party leaders involved in rape?"
    BJP Spokesperson: "Even Congress did it"

    Reporter: "Your party leaders involved in murder?"
    BJP Spokesperson: "Even Congress did it"

    Reporter: "Your party leaders involved in corruption?"

    BJP, which fooled voters by promising "Good Governance", now competing with Congress even in corruption???

    Any question media throws at BJP leaders, they don't reply for that, only one response comes from them "even Congress was corrupt"!!!

    @ dr. kamath
    OK, Congress is corrupt... so what? you too should do the same thing?

    Where is MaunModi's fiery speech on corruption charges on his ministers?

    BJP leaders who did drama on AAP's minister Tomar's fake education qualification, why don't they verify their own minister's fake certificates?

    You FEKU Bhakts don't answer Congress Leader's question on corruption charges on BJP leaders, but at least have some courteousy to prove your clean image (even though it is fake) in front of Indian citizens, instead of being arrogant like your usual practice.


    By the way, for your information, main attraction of this year's Yoga Day is 'Lalitasana' performed by FEKU!!!

    People,

    BJP was trigger happy and arrested Tomar during verification of his documents/BSC & LLB degree...now do the same with Sushma and Vasundara...arrest them and do a custodial interrogation while verifying authenticity of their documents...

    BJPees have different standards to others and them self... when you try to dig grave for others,,, you might fall in it yourself sometimes...

    Where is colour blind CAPITAL LETTER now???

    this laith modi mess happened during upa rule.they should have taken action on him earlier itself and put him behind bars.upa being mum on the entire issue smells conspiravy on thier part.

    in narendra modi rule he will not allow a single corruption case to occur.this is a paapakarma that happened during upa and as a prarabda karma, clean people like narendra modi has to solve it.
