After a Delhi court on Monday accepted EC's closure report in a money laundering case linked to the 2010 Commonwealth Games, the Congress on Monday said that former Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and the BJP “teamed up to fabricate scams like 2G and Commonwealth to defame the Congress”. “Two very honest and dedicated leaders—Dr Manmohan Singh and Mrs Sheila Dixit—were falsely accused… The truth of 2G has already come out in the court. Today, the court has accepted the ED’s closure report in the Commonwealth case as well,” said Congress communication in- charge Jairam Ramesh. “…Narendra Modi and Arvind Kejriwal should apologise to the Congress and the people of India for misleading the country,” said Ramesh. Congress Media and Publicity Department chairperson Pawan Khera said the “collapse of these manufactured cases” is not just a “legal victory”, but a “moral and political indictment of the BJP’s politics of false narrative”. “For years, the BJP ecosystem weaponised lies to tarnish the Congress over the issues like 2G, CWG, Mr Robert Vadra and coal. The truth stands tall, and their falsehoods lie in ruins,” said Khera in a statement. “Will the Prime Minister apologise to the nation? Will Arvind Kejriwal apologise to the people of Delhi?” asked Khera.
