Rahul gandhi's : confessional statement made by the ruling party

The BJP on Tuesday termed Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi’s comments on the misuse of the CBI by political parties in power as a confessional statement made by the ruling party. “This is a confessional statement by the ruling party. This statement reminds me of the statement made by Indira Gandhi when asked about corruption in her government that it was a worldwide phenomenon. Today’s statement is also on the same line,” BJP leader Arun Jaitley said here. Rahul had earlier in the day said that every party would pressurise the institutions under it while in power according to its wish when his comments on misuse of the CBI were sought. “This is a systemic issue. This is not the issue of an agency. Every party, when in power, could pressurise its institutions. It is a fact. In general, when the BJP comes to power in Rajasthan, it tries to push its people into such institutions. When the Congress comes to power, it pushes its people. It is a reality of Indian politics,” he said. Jaitley reiterated that if the NDA was voted to power, it would set up a commission to look into the allegations against the CBI.On Rahul’s comments that the Left would support the Congress after the elections, Jaitley said that the Left parties were competent themselves to say that if required.
