SRINAGAR : Congress leader Sanjay Nirupam slamming Jammu and Kashmir Governor Satya Pal Malik for allegedly endorsing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s “Rajiv Gandhi was Bhrashtachari No 1″ remark.
“All those who are governors in our country are basically ‘chamcha’ of government. Satya Pal Malik is also a ‘chamcha’. Rajiv Gandhi got a clean chit from several courts in the Bofors scam, among those who have given him clean chit is the present Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley himself,” said Nirupam.
“When Narendra Modi said Rajiv Gandhi was “corrupt number 1,” he faced criticism and shame for his statement. After that, he never said it again. Satpal Malik jumped in the fray to appease Modi so that he may enjoy his position as governor for some more days,” he added.
“The governors should uphold the dignity and respect of their chair and act accordingly,” he said. (PTK)
