BJP MP Nishikant Dubey alleges 150 Congress MPs took Soviet funds, cites CIA document
New Delhi: BJP MP Nishikant Dubey on Monday accused the Congress party of having been funded by the Soviet Union during the leadership of the late HKL Bhagat, citing an unclassified 2011 CIA document. In a post on social media platform X, Dubey claimed that more than 150 Congress MPs had received financial support from the USSR.
“Congress, Corruption, and Slavery. This unclassified secret document was released by the CIA in 2011. According to it, under the leadership of the late Congress leader HKL Bhagat, more than 150 Congress MPs were funded by Soviet Russia, acting as agents for Russia?” Dubey wrote.
He further alleged that a group of journalists also acted as Soviet agents, adding that the document refers to 16,000 news articles Russia reportedly got published during that time. Dubey claimed that around 1,100 KGB agents were present in India then, exerting influence over bureaucrats, businesses, political parties, and opinion-makers to shape national policies.
Dubey also targeted former Congress MP Subhadra Joshi, alleging that she accepted ₹5 lakh from the German government during elections and later became the president of the Indo-German Forum after losing. “Is this a country or a puppet of slaves, agents, and middlemen? Congress must answer whether this should be investigated even today,” he stated.
This isn’t the first time Dubey has criticised the Congress. Last week, he accused former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi of “murdering” the Constitution through the 42nd Amendment introduced during the Emergency period. He argued that the amendment undermined the Constitution drafted by Dr B.R. Ambedkar, especially the rights of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes.
The Congress party has not officially responded to Dubey’s latest remarks.
