Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) President Rajnath Singh on Sunday accused the Congress-led UPA Government of crossing all limit of corruption, and said that India cannot prosper, as long as they are in power.
"If anyone has hurt the honour and pride of this country, it is the Congress Government. Congress government has crossed all limits of corruption. Whenever they have come to power, there is always a list of corruption charges against them," he said while addressing a rally here.
"And we have a Prime Minister who never speaks. As long as they are in power, this country cannot prosper," he added.
He further mocked Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh over the missing coal blocks file, and said 'whatever he touches, disappears.'
"Our Prime Minister has miraculous hands, whatever he touches, disappears. He kept his hand on the coal blocks file, and it went missing," he said.
Singh also expressed concern over frequent ceasefire violations by Pakistani troops along the Line of Control (LoC), and asserted that 'terror and talk' cannot go together.
"Our neighbouring country Pakistan is killing our soldiers, and this government is not doing anything. I want to tell the Prime Minister, terror and talk cannot go together," he said. Senior BJP leaders Sushma Swaraj and Nitin Gadkari were also present at the rally.
