FACT: Senior Congress leader Sanjay Nirupam launched a scathing attack on the BJP on Tuesday, alleging that the Pakistani intelligence agency ISI “is funding the main opposition party through the companies owned by Reddy brothers of Karnataka”. “It is a matter of record that the company owned Obalapuram, has a number of subsidiaries in Dubai and Singapore through which they export iron ores to various steel factories in China and Pakistan,” he claimed.
“The ownership of these Pakistan-based companies is always ambiguous and on occasions the ISI is found owning them. Many a times, the business houses in Pakistan are found funding the ISI and its activities,” alleged Nirupam, Congress secretary in-charge of Karnataka.
Nirupam told that he would soon write a letter to home minister P Chidambaram, requesting him to look into the matter and find out the “illicit financial relationship between the BJP and the ISI.”
OWL WATCH: Congress party is restricting themselves to comment on corruption. The cause is well known to all. The plan is to divert the issues and to make it a muddy game. So better to ignite a different discussion now!!
