Kolkata: BJP on Wednesday accused the UPA government of misusing CBI against political opponents and alleged Congress party had virtually turned the agency into a "Congress Bureau of Investigation".

"Congress has been constantly using CBI against their political opponents," BJP President Nitin Gadkari told reporters here.

Asked about corruption charges against former Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yeddurappa, he said "it is too early to make any allegation against him. The entire matter is sub-judice."

To a question about the charges against mining magnates and Reddy brothers of Karnataka, he said investigation is in progress.

"As far as individual business is concerned, investigation is going on and action can be taken against them," he said.

He expressed his party's opposition to the entry of FDI in retail sector.

The party had yesterday admitted that in 2004 NDA election manifest, they had promised to allow 26 per cent FDI in the sector.

BJP IS IN THE HABIT OF NOT REMAINING FOCUSED IN THEIR OWN POLICIES. IT IS LIKE A BEHAVIOR OF AA SMALL CHILD WHO WHILE PLAYING WITH ONE TOY SEE A NEW ONE TO LEAVE THE FIRST ONE AND JUMPS TO THE NEW TOY ONLY TO WAIT FOR ANOTHER NEW ONE. IT LACKS A LONG TERM VISION AND EVEN APPLIES TO WHILE CHOOSING ITS OWN CANDIDATES FOR ELECTIONS ONLY TO ENCASH POPULARITY OF THAT INDIVIDUAL LIKE UMA BHARTI, AND FILM STAR LIKE DHRARMENDRA, HEMA MALINI AND OTHER AS LONG AS THEIR POPULARITY CAN BE ENCASHED . IT IS ALSO A FORMULA TO ATTACK SONIA GANDHI AND RAHUL AS BEING THE PARTYS OWNERS. GADHKARI SHOULD ALSO DO A SOUL SEARCH AND SAY ABOUT HIS OWN PARTY ORIGINALLY RSS AND WENT ON TO CHANGE CLOTHES AS JAN SANGH AND LATER TO BE BJP !!! IT IS A CONFUSED PARTY ONE DAY WILL SPEAK ABOUT ADVANI NOT BEING THE PRIME MINISTERIAL CANDIDATE NEXT DAY TO START A RATH YATRA ! AS IT HAS MANY PRIME MINISTERIAL CANDIDATES THE POINT IS WHERE FROM THE MAJORITY WILL COME TO CHOOSE A PRIME MINISTER !!! THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GADKARI AND VINOD KAMBLI MAKING STATEMENTS WITHOUT ANY BASE AND AWAY FROM THE REALITY !!!
