UPA govt has no moral right to be in power: Amit Shah

BJP General Secretary Amit Shah Sunday sought dismissal of the scam ridden UPA government,alleging that it has tarnished the nations image and has no moral right to be in power.

The Manmohan Singh and Sonia Gandhi-led UPA government at the Centre has proved to be the weakest dispensation since independence which only indulged in corruption and shielding the corrupt elements, former Gujarat Home Minister Shah said while talking to reporters here.

The UPA government has tarnished the image of the country with its involvement in several scams and it has no right to rule the country. Manmohan Singh and his government should resign on moral grounds, Shah said.

A close aide of Chief Minister Narendra Modi,Shah was here to take part in a demonstration against the UPA governments alleged involvement in several scams,including the 2G,coalgate and CWG scams and demanding PMs resignation over the issues.

Unfolding of mega scams including coal block allocation,2G and others,followed by developments like the beheading of Indian soldiers,Chinese incursion and death of Sarabjit Singh have shaken the faith of people in the government, Shah further said.

When asked whether Modi would be the partys prime ministerial candidate in the 2014 Lok Sabha polls,Shah said,the partys parliamentary board will decide on that.

On cases against him,Shah alleged that the CBI investigation against him was a handiwork of the Centre.
