PTI, Jul 15, 2024, 8:39 PM IST

The opposition BJP on Monday tore into the ruling Congress over the Rs 187 crore scam in the Karnataka Maharshi Valmiki Scheduled Tribe Development Corporation.

Launching a blistering attack on the government, leader of opposition in the state assembly, R Ashoka said through this scam, which took the life of a sincere and honest government officer Chandrasekharan P, has exposed the ‘anti-Dalit’ face of the government, which calls itself a champion for the cause of Dalits.

“There used to be scams of two per cent, three per cent and 10 per cent but the Valmiki Corporation scam beats all. This is the ‘100 per cent Khata-Khat’ scam,” Ashoka said during the adjournment motion in the House.
