The Sharad Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party (NCP SP) on Sunday hit back at Union Home Minister Amit Shah for terming Sharad Pawar as the "sargana" (ringleader) of corruption, saying it is the BJP which has "legitimised" corruption by incorporating tainted leaders in the saffron fold, reported the PTI.
"They accuse political leaders of corruption, and then once those who they accuse join BJP, they are all given a clean chit. This is the BJP`s washing machine process of legitimising corruption," NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) national spokesperson Clyde Crasto stated, as per the PTI.
