New Delhi: The Bofors storm hit Parliament on Thursday with the Opposition raising the issue, much to the discomfort of the Congress party. Senior BJP leader Jaswant Singh on Thursday spoke on the Bofors issue in Lok Sabha and said that the Congress lost a Lok Sabha poll due to Bofors.
Several other leaders also spoke on the issue.
Manishankar Aiyer:
Please let me exercise my Right to reply to the Leader of Opposition.
We must reply to the leader of the Opposition who without naming anyone has made very serious allegations.
He has talked about the former Prime Minister of India Mr Rajiv Gandhi.
Sanjay Nirupam:
The Bofors case is closed by the Supreme Court. I condemn the BJP for trying to politicise the matter. BJP should apologise.
Jaswant Singh:
I failed to extradite Quattrocchi when I was a minister.
Bofors gun is a very fine gun and good purchase. It gives me no delight to raise this issue.
Bofors is a saga of continuing corruption.
I am very happy that Amitabh Bachchan's name is cleared from the Bofors scam.
We must find out why was Amitabh Bachchan's name involved in the Bofors scam in the first place.
Quattrocchi was taken out of the country by the government. How did this happen?
Why was Quattrocchi red corner notice withdrawn in the Bofors case?
Basudeb Acharia:
Bofors was the first ever and biggest defence scandal in India.
Money was taken but why when everyone knew that money was deposited in Quattrocchi's account, he was allowed to move out of the country in 1993.
Want to know how Quattrocchi could not be extradited.
The people voted Congress out because of the Bofors deal.
Bofors is not a closed chapter.
