With the BJP receiving funds from corporates in the form of electoral bonds, Prime Minister Narendra Modi cannot talk about corruption, Tamil Nadu Congress Committee president K. Selvaperunthagai said on Tuesday.
In a statement, he claimed that the Adani and Ambani Groups had registered a massive growth in assets during the last 10 years. “Who is responsible for this? Corporates benefited from the Modi regime. So, Prime Minister Modi cannot talk about corruption at all,” he said.
The Congress leader pointed out that the tax for corporates was reduced from 40% to 22% in 2019, resulting in a fall in tax revenue from ₹5.57 lakh crore in 2019-20 to ₹4.57 lakh crore in 2020-21.
