Bathinda : Lok Bhalai Party president Balwant Singh Ramoowalia today accused the Congress-led UPA government of laying unhealthy traditions by targeting the constitutional institution of the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG), which has estimated a loss of Rs 1.76 lakh crore due to the 2G Spectrum scam. Ramoowalia, who was here, also accused the UPA government of functioning like a protector of corrupt elements instead of safeguarding public money. “It was unfortunate that the Central Government is plundering public money for its own survival,” he alleged. He said the Central Government was one by one eroding the sanctity of constitutional institutions. It was also trying to protect Central Vigilance Commissioner PJ Thomas, who was accused of misuse of power in the 2G scam, he added Ramoowalia said despite allegations of corruption and misuse of power against Suresh Kalmadi during the Commonwealth Games, the Centre remained mum on the issue. He also demanded retrieving black money that was hidden in banks abroad.
