It's selective blackmail by Centre: Cong - Times of India

Calangute: The Congress party in Goa accused the NDA government at the Centre of indulging in "selective blackmail" by revealing only three names of people supposed to have stashed black money abroad.

Congress spokesperson Sunil Kawthankar, when asked for his reaction about the affidavit filed in the Supreme Court by the Union government, said, "The BJP had promised to get the black money back to India within 100 days, which they have failed to do. Also, there is a list of about 700 persons who have stashed black money abroad, so why reveal only three names. Is it to give a thread to the state government by which to extract money?"

He also said that the BJP government's proclaimed 'zero tolerance to corruption' has now changed to hundred per cent tolerance to corruption. Not a single person has been nabbed in the drugs nexus case, the PWD scam or the mining case, he said.
