| Don't repay loans taken from Govt agencies, says Congress | | Naked display of appeasement policy | | Neha Jammu, Oct 7: As the very crucial elections to the Lok Sabha approach, the frustrated and nervous Congress has unleashed a campaign designed to appease the minorities. The Congress leadership has gone so perverted in its desperate bid to garner the minority votes that its leaders have started stooping low to the extent that they have started asking the minority communities not to repay loans taken from the Government agencies. This is a not a statement based on heresy. It is based on the highly outrageous and condemnable statement one of the Congress leaders made on October 6 at Bangalore, Karnataka. The case in point is what the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president G Parameshwara said while participating in a workshop on schemes for the minorities. In fact, Sonia Gandhi's loyalist and KPCC president G Parameshwara prompted the minorities in the State to cheat Government agencies, including banks. "It's all right for them to cheat by not repaying loans taken from Government agencies. The Karnataka Minorities Development Corporation (KMDC), instead of giving small loans, should sanction huge amounts like Rs 50 lakh. Never mind if the beneficiaries don't repay the loans. Many people and officials have duped Government agencies of several thousands of crores of rupees. It's part of the development process," he said at a Congress workshop on schemes for minorities in Bangalore. What Sonia Gandhi's nominee said was a brazen attempt on his part to appease the minorities in the run-up to the general election and prompt the Congress workers and supporters in the Government and outside to plunder public money by duping Government economic institutions. It was also clear from the outrageous remarks of the KPCC president that the Congress was standing on a weak wicket in Karnataka and that the Narendra Modi-phobia has gripped the local Congress leadership like other States of the country. But the question to be asked is: Will the Election Commission of India take cognizance of the fact that the Congress has sought to vitiate and communalize the country's election scene and derecognize the Congress party for the twin-crime it committed? If the Election Commission is seriously interested in holding a free and fair poll, it has to nip the evil in the bud right now without losing a single moment.
