NEW DELHI: Keeping heat on Congress over ED's chargesheet against Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi in National Herald case, BJP Friday dared the two to seek a quick and time-bound disposal of the cases.
At a presser, former minister Anurag Thakur accused the two Congress functionaries of being caught red-handed in the case, claiming that any mention of the issue created a sensation within the Congress ecosystem. "It's obvious they feel the heat, as they've been caught stealing red-handed once again. They acquired assets worth Rs 2,000 crore by paying just Rs 50 lakh," Thakur said and dismissed allegations of political vendetta.
The Gandhis own 76% of Young Indian which he said was given a loan of Rs 50 lakh by Congress. The firm took over Associated Journals Limited, which owns the newspaper, in lieu of Rs 90 crore it owed to Congress, he said and asked if a party could give a loan.
