BJP offering 35 crores to Congress MLA to topple Nath govt: Digvijaya Singh

Congress MLAs not for sale in MP
Former chief minister of Madhya Pradesh Digvijaya Singh has once again accused BJP of destabilising the Congress government in MP. The Congress veteran in Delhi once again claimed that BJP is indulging in horse-trading and is offering Rs 25 to 35 crore to Congress MLA’s to topple the Chief Minister Kamal Nath led government.
Addressing reporters at a press conference in Delhi the Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh claimed that former chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and former minister Narottam Mishra are offering the money to Congress MLA’s by calling them over phone. Those in opposition in Madhya Pradesh are not ready to accept the fact.
He went on and alleged that
“I don’t charge without facts, Shivraj Singh and Narottam Mishra have reached a consensus, one is dreaming to becoming CM and the other is eyeing the deputy CM post.”
Chouhan and Mishra are calling up Congress MLA’s and blatantly offering them Rs 25-35 crore with options of installments, Singh said. He said, “The offer is of Rs 5 crore upfront, the second installment in Rajya Sabha elections and third and final installment will be paid after the floor test.

Earlier last year in January, Singh had made similar claims of horse-trading by BJP in Madhya Pradesh. In January Singh had reportedly said “BJP MLA Narayan Tripathi contacted Sabalgarh (Morena district) MLA Baijnath Kushwah (of Congress) and took him to a dhaba (eatery), where former ministers Narottam Mishra and Vishwas Sarang (both from the BJP) met him (Kushwaha). They offered Rs 100 crore to Kushwah to topple the government. He was also offered a ministerial post in the new BJP government,” Singh told reporters in the MP Assembly premises.
On Monday, he also claimed that this is not Karnataka and not a single Congress MLA’s from Madhya Pradesh is for sale.
