NEW DELHI: The BJP today claimed to have gathered documentary evidence in the "cash for vote" scam and has submitted them before the Parliamentary committee probing the matter, its senior leader Arun Jaitley said.
The party, which inquired into the matter, has also written a 17-page letter to the Parliamentary committee headed by Congress member V Kishore Chandradeo, he said.
Jaitley said Samajwadi MP Reoti Raman Singh had offered his party MPs the cash. Singh made the offer on July 21st night.
He alleged that SP leader Amar Singh was behind the entire episode.
"The investigating agencies did not do their job. So we inquired into the matter and gathered documentary evidence in the case," Jaitley told reporters.
He alleged the 'cash for vote' scam, showing money being paid to get votes, reflects the subversion of Indian Parliament. He said there was subversion of a section of media also.
"One channel recorded it. It was waited that the channel would show the independent evidences. That did not happen. We saw subversion of a section of media," he said.
