New Delhi:
BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi has  said that in any democracy governments come and go, as per the will of people. The most important facet of governance and legitimacy is that the integrity of any government must be beyond any doubt. It must have nimpeachable credibility in the eyes of the people in the country, on whose behalf the government serves. It is absolutely shocking and painful to see the unprecedented scale of serious corruption charges that are  acing the present UPA government.
In our nation’s young history, at times we have unfortunately witnessed  charges of corruption against the central governments - even reaching the high office of the Prime Minister during the tenure of Late Shri Rajiv Gandhi, and Late P.V. Narasimha Rao. However the charges that now confront the UPA under Dr Manmohan Singh have left all previous records far behind.The unbridled corruption by this government is extreme and all pervasive. We say this with full responsibility and rationale.
First, Un-imaginable Amounts - The amounts of money which has been siphoned away cannot even be imagined. According to media reports, the total amount of loot in all the scams from CWG (Commonwealth Games), 2G telecom scandal, Foodgrain scam, the Antrix-Devas deal, to the recent Coalgate, is estimated up to the tune of Rs. 550 trillion.. Second, All Pervasive - The extent of involvement is unprecedented. It is not limited to one or two ministries, but corrupt deals are being exposed across numerous ministries and now even the Prime Minister's office is under cloud.
 This makes the present UPA as the most corrupt government in Independent India. Third, Blatant Cover-ups - The brazen-ness with which the government is derailing the investigations is a most serious dimension. When something goes wrong, a free and fair enquiry is expected, and in case the enquiry is under cloud, the complainant can go to the courts – this is the due process of law and justice Yet, the UPA government is arrogantly throwing all norms to the winds, and blatantly trying to subvert due processes to cover up the accused.The integrity and commitment of government towards the judicial system is the core of democratic system.
It is proven that this government tried to subvert the judicial process in the Supreme Court on the issue of CBI's affidavit in the Coalgate scam. Even more alarming is the fact that this subversion was done with the involvement of Law Ministry & the Prime Minister’s Office. The people of India are now questioning how will such a government ensure a free and fair trial and allow justice to prevail?
