Delhi Minister and AAP leader Gopal Rai on Monday lashed out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the electoral bond “scam” and said that the PM must issue a clarification. “If the electoral bonds scheme was made with good intentions, then why are facts coming out revealing otherwise? On one side they (BJP) are fighting corruption but on the other hand, they took a Rs 60 crore donation from Sharad Reddy who was arrested in the so-called liquor scam,” he said.

He said the companies that are running in loss are giving crores in donations. He asked, “If it is not black money, then what is it?” “After the verdict from the Supreme Court came out, I feel that this scam is the biggest. PM must clarify this,” he added.

He further pointed out that the Prime Minister must reply on how companies running in loss are donating money. “It is obviously black money,” he added. PM Modi accused the opposition parties of “spreading lies” over the electoral bonds scheme, which has been struck down by the Supreme Court, and said, “Everyone will regret it when there is an honest reflection”.
