Senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley insisted that the ongoing session of Parliament would be historic as it would expose the "corruption" in government.
In a sharp reaction to government's refusal to go for a JPC probe into the 2G Spectrum allocation, BJP today said the UPA regime had become a "complete prisoner" to alliance politics and had even made CBI and CVC "pliable" to survive.
An aggressive Opposition has been mounting immense pressure on the government in Parliament for ouster of telecom minister A Raja over 2G spectrum scam.
"This government is a complete prisoner of alliance politics. This government has no concern for probity, cleanliness and for any form of accountability. Here is a case where to common sense it appears that this man has cost the exchequer so heavily by allotting Spectrum in 2007-08 at 2001 prices," senior BJP leader Arun Jaitley said.
He asserted that thought the CAG report on 2G Spectrum allocation made clear the amount of corruption involved, yet the government was not ready for a JPC probe.
"The CAG report merely reaffirms what is known on first principles. You don't need to be an accountant or an investigator to find this out. Despite that the government is unwilling to act," he said.
The leader of opposition in Rajya Sabha insisted that the ongoing session of Parliament would be historic as it would expose the "corruption" in government. He alleged that the Congress-led regime had "corrupted" the CBI and CVC in order to protect the guilty.
"They have already created an infrastructure for cover up. A pliable, tainted CVC, a pliable CBI and then the government goes to the court and takes an opinion saying we are not in a position to take any action against him. The truth is it is a huge, monumental scam. They want to let it go because the alliance is shaky," he said.
Asked about his opinion on the government take that there was no need for a JPC probe, Jaitley said, "We don't expect the government to prefer morality over survival. The government has legitimately preferred an option which abandons any form of accountability and just goes in by the preservation instinct and self-survival."
He insisted that BJP would keep using public opinion and the Parliamentary forum to pressurise the government for a thorough probe into the scam.
