"During election campaign, Modi spoke about scams and said he would not allow corruption. But now scams are taking place and the latest is the cricket scam, and the MP who raised it has been suspended (from the BJP)," the Congress vice president told reporters on his way back to Delhi after a two-day visit to Amethi.
Tearing into the Prime Minister's promise to root out corruption, the Congress leader said, "Modi used to say 'na khaoonga, na khaney doonga' (will not engage in corruption myself, nor will allow others). But today he is silent. People have started losing faith."
