Addressing the media persons here today after inaugurating Rose Garden here today Mr. Badal said that Congress led UPA government was trying to conceal the names of Congress leaders and MPs, whose names have figured in Income Tax department survey showing the persons having Swiss Banks accounts illegally. He regretted that instead of adopting a transparent procedure to punish the guilty, Union government was going all lengths to keep these names under wrap. He said that Captain Amarinder Singh, who was just a pauper before assuming power, owes an explanation to the people of Punjab that how he could amass Rs 400 crore within five years. He said that everybody knows that a Public sector Bank had pasted a notice of attachment outside the residence of Captain Amarinder Singh, when he failed to pay bank loan. Mr. Badal said that Captain and Raninder must explain to the public the source of money for purchasing grand villa in Dubai. Mr. Badal said that if Captain Amarinder was opposing Swami Ramdev tooth and nail because he has launched a ‘Swabhiman Yatra’ to bring back ill-gotten money stashed in Swiss accounts. Mr. Badal said that as Captain Amarinder Singh directly and personally impacted by the Swabhiman Yatra of Swami Ramdev that’s why he was jittery and opposing him.
Mr. Badal demanded that Union Finance Minister should make public all the names public persons having Swiss bank accounts as people have right to know the names of ‘Looters’ who have looted the tax payers hard earned money. Mr. Badal said that Congress led UPA government was the most corrupt government of the world and therefore it was dragging its feet in expediting the trial of 2G scam and CWG scam.
Allaying the contention of Congress led UPA government, it can not get all the names of Swiss bank accounts holders, Mr. Badal said that if US Government can get the names and get the money transferred to US, why can not India do the same. He said that it was an alllibi to save the big fishes of congress party.
Resolving to pin down Congress party on the plank of corruption, Mr. Badal said that Shiromani Akali Dal would bring before masses that how Punjab Congress leaders and its Congress high command have looted lakhs of crores from Indian treasury and deposited it in their own accounts in Swiss banks.
When asked about the Rath Yatra of Mr. L.K. Advani, Mr. Badal said that this Yatra was against inflation and corruption and every party cadre would welcome this Yatra whole heartedly, when it enters in Punjab on November 13.
Answering a query, the Deputy Chief Minister lashed at Captain Amarinder Singh for dragging holiest shrine of humanity Sri Harmandir Sahib, in petty political battle and said that Captain Amarinder Singh must seek forgiveness before Sri Akal Takht Sahib for deliberately misguiding Sikh community.
