Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray has accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of engaging in corruption through the electoral bonds scheme, following recent disclosures related to political funding. Thackeray criticised the BJP for collecting Rs 8,000 crore in election bonds while speaking to party workers in Colaba, south Mumbai. He compared this with the BJP`s claims against the Congress, stating that the BJP was responsible for rampant stealing, reported PTI.
"Disclosures linked to the electoral bonds scheme have exposed the BJP, which routinely accuses the Congress of looting the country. Will you give this country in the hands of looters? The BJP wants another five-year term (at the Centre) to loot the country while showing you (citizens) dreams of `Viksit Bharat` (developed India)...," Thackeray was quoted as saying.
