A BJP MP from Pilibhit in Uttar Pradesh, Varun Gandhi has been strongly critical of the government's stand on a host of recent issues
BJP MP Varun Gandhi, who has been in news of late for consistently targeting his party and its government at the centre, is in attack mode again, this time over massive bank frauds and the economic offenders behind them. विजय माल्या: 9000 करोड़नीरव मोदी: 14000 करोड़ऋषि अग्रवाल: 23000 करोड़आज जब कर्ज के बोझ तले दब कर देश में रोज लगभग 14 लोग आत्महत्या कर रहे हैं, तब ऐसे धन पशुओं का जीवन वैभव के चरम पर है।इस महा भ्रष्ट व्यवस्था पर एक 'मजबूत सरकार' से 'मजबूत कार्यवाही' की अपेक्षा की जाती है।
Listing names of economic offenders Vijay Mallya, Nirav Modi and Rishi Agarwal - former chairman of ABG Shipyard currently under the scanner for a massive fraud - Mr Gandhi took a swipe at the centre, saying a "strong government" is expected to take "strong action" against such corruption.
Fugitive businessmen Vijay Mallya and Nirav Modi have fled the country after probe agencies unearthed massive bank frauds by their companies, estimated at Rs 9,000 crore and Rs 14,000 crore, respectively. And Rishi Agarwal is at the centre of a scam worth nearly Rs 23,000 crore - believed to be the country's biggest ever.
The BJP MP then went on to say that such people are living at the peak of prosperity at a time when 14 people are dying by suicide every day in a debt-ridden country.
