New Delhi
BJP president JP Nadda, in a tweet this morning, released documents that he said showed that during the Manmohan Singh era, money from the Prime Minister’s relief fund was diverted and donated to the Rajiv Gandhi foundation. Sonia Gandhi is chief of the foundation and the board includes Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, P Chidambaram and Manmohan Singh.
“PMNRF (Prime Minister’s National Relief Fund), meant to help people in distress, was donating money to the Rajiv Gandhi Foundation in the UPA years. Who sat on the PMNRF board? Smt. Sonia Gandhi. Who chairs RGF? Smt. Sonia Gandhi. Totally reprehensible, disregarding ethics, processes and not bothering about transparency,” said Nadda.
Twitterati teach geography to BJP president
Users of popular microblogging platform Twitter were on Friday seen schooling JP Nadda on geography and mathematics after the BJP chief made a serious gaffe in one of his tweets regarding the India-China issue.
“Dr Manmohan Singh belongs to the same party which: Helplessly surrendered over 43,000 km of Indian territory to the Chinese! During the UPA years saw abject strategic and territorial surrender without a fight. Time and again belittles our forces,” Nadda tweeted.
To put things in perspective, Earth’s circumference is only 40,075 km while India measures 3,214 km from north to south and 2,933 km from east to west.
