USAID row: Congress slams BJP, demands white paper
The grand old party also said that the “white paper” should not only focus on USAID funding, but all such agencies which fund both Governments, individuals and all other entities under Indian law.
The ‘jhoot and loot’ (falsehood and plunder) of the present government at the centre stands exposed with the unconditional apology of former Comptroller and Auditor General Vinod Rai, said All India Congress Committee (AICC) leader Mohan Prakash here on Sunday.
The alleged 2G scam had been conjured to tarnish the image of the Manmohan Singh government and vitiate the atmosphere.

The false campaign caused irreparable damage to the economy of the country. The alleged coal scam, the Anna Hazare movement, Ram Dev baba, and others contributed to damage the image of the country, he said while insisting that the apology of Rai in a case filed by Maharashtra Congress leader Sanjay Nirupam exposes the entire evil design to defame the then UPA government.

He alleged that there were several other actors who latched on to the vicious and malicious campaign like V K Singh, Kiran Bedi, BJP, and RSS.
The entire gameplan appears to be to somehow install a BJP government led by Narendra Modi, he said. PM Modi should also apologise, he said.
