Rajasthan's Minister of Public Health Engineering Department(PHED) Kiran Maheshwari today refuted the charges the corruption allegations levelled by Leader of Opposition Rameshwar Dudi, saying it is Congress which "patronises scams."

"Corruption has always been patronised by Congress. Before making any allegation, Congress should have looked at themselves first," Maheshwari said.

"In the last six months of previous Congress rule, tenders were issued hastily and certain firms were favoured. The previous government issued work order on around 25 per cent inflated rates," Maheswari alleged in a statement.

Yesterday, Dudi has demanded a debate on corruption in public health and engineering department, medical and health department and also cow deaths in Hingaunia Gaushala in the monsoon session of Rajasthan assembly which is beginning tomorrow.
