The BJP will raise the solar scam at national level to corner the Congress party for diverting the Central subsidy meant for Solar power projects, BJP national spokesman Prakash Javadekar said .Addressing a ‘meet-the-press’ programme on Monday, he said that in the Solar scam, the real issue was the diversion of Central subsidy meant for promoting solar projects.

“Chief Minister Oommen Chandy is justifying corruption. He is claiming that the scam involved an amount of only ` 10 crore. Corruption is corruption. How can it be differentiated,’’ he asked.Javadekar said that the Congress party should not forget that the Bofors scam amounting to just `64 crore had cost the party dearly. The people punished the Congress by keeping it out of power for 10 years. ‘’The people will not let you go whether it is `10 crore or `10,000 crore,’’ he said.

“If Chief Minister Oommen Chandy was not involved in the scam, why did five of the Chief Minister’s office staff had to go,?’’ he asked. He said that more scams would continue to haunt the UDF Government. Already, the scam involving 108 Ambulance service, in which a Central Minister’s son is involved, has already been brought to light, Javadekar said.
