The BJP will take the issue of rampant corruption by the UPA government in public domain and will launch a campaign on December 22 in New Delhi for constitution of JPC,party spokesperson Syed Shahnawaz Hussain told reporters here.

“We are firm on our justified demand of JPC and will struggle from Parliament to roads to get it formed,” he said at BJP state headquarters here.

“The UPA government is not only involved in scams like 2G spectrum,Commonwealth Games,Adarsh Housing society,but also protecting corrupt people. The 2G spectrum scam by a minister has caused the biggest loss to exchequer in the democratic world,so why this should not be probed by a JPC?” he asked.

He said the party wanted to raise issues relating to public in the winter session of the Parliament,but due to stubbornness of the government on JPC this could not happen.

The protest-campaign will also be held in cities like Jaipur,Ludhiana,Rohtak,Patna,Bhopal,Ahemdabad,Mumbai,Chennai,Hydrabad after its launch in New Delhi,Hussain said.

Earlier in the day,he offered prayers at the shrine of Khwaja Moinuddin Chisty in Ajmer.
