Nilgiris (Tamil Nadu): Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J.Jayalalithaa Thursday charged DMK MP A.Raja of not doing anything to his constituency but being instrumental in the country losing around Rs.2 trillion in the allocation of telecom spectrum.
"Raja did not bring any projects to Nilgiris. But as a minister in the Congress-led government, Raja was instrumental in the nation losing around Rs.2 lakh crore (two trillion) in the allocation of 2G spectrum allocation," she said, addressing an election rally in this Tamil Nadu constituency, around 555 km from Chennai.
She wondered why the DMK did not exit the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government at the centre in 2010 itself if it had believed that Raja was not involved in the scam.
