Congress instructs CBI to contact Shah on a graft claim

As Amit Shah had said in the public that the Conrad Sangma administration was the most corrupt in the nation, the Congress has requested that the CBI call him into person and ask him to provide all the information about scams in Meghalaya.

Before to the February 27 Assembly elections, senior BJP officials had accused Sangma's National People's Party administration of corruption; nonetheless, the BJP later joined the new NPP administration.

With this demand, the Congress is attempting to paint the home ministry's decision to send the Delhi police to Rahul Gandhi's house to get information on the women who had complained to him about sexual exploitation and domestic abuse as being dishonest.

In a letter to CBI director Subodh Kumar Jaiswal, Congress communications head Jairam Ramesh noted that Amit Shah had said in a public address on February 17, 2023, that the administration in Meghalaya at the time was the most corrupt in the nation.

"Amit Shah serves as India's home minister. He would have had access to information and facts that helped him to the aforementioned decision in his role as the home minister.

"The home minister has neglected to act upon the facts on the corrupt practises and incidents of the erstwhile Meghalaya government," Ramesh said. As a result, we implore you to call Amit Shah into person and ask him to provide all the data and evidence that supported his conclusion and conduct an investigation.
