State Congress president Arjun Modhwadia has challenged Chief MInister Narendra to remove all hurdles for appointment of a lokayukta if he thinks if he is really clean and uncorrupted.

Reacting to Modi’s comments here on Friday that “UPA’s glass has been full with corruption and there is no space for trust or belief in UPA government,” Modhwadia said in a statement on Saturday that the reality of Modi’s claim as an uncorrupted leader would be exposed if he went ahead with appointing lokayukta.

Referring to Modi allegedly as Mr Feku or bluff-master,the Congress leader said Modi had been delaying the appointment of a lokayukta for the last more than eight years to hide the alleged corruption of his government.

Stating that CAG had pointed out financial malpractices amounting to Rs 46,652 crore by the Modi government,he alleged that corruption worth Rs 1,00,000 crore had taken place during Modi’s regime in 17 scams. But Modi cleverly prevented the lokayukta appointment on one or the other pretext to ensure that “his glass overflowing with corruption” remained hidden from the public knowledge.

Modhwadia declared that Congress would soon expose the “opportunist politics of Mr Feku from public platforms”.
