Intensifying its campaign in Haryana ahead of the Lok Sabha polls, the BJP on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi by releasing a 10-page booklet in Sirsa. The booklet, which also refers to several Congress ministers embroiled in corruption cases, was distributed by the party across the state.

In it, the BJP has attacked Sonia over her real name, education and work. It also details the various alleged scams that took place during UPA’s 10-year tenure at the Centre.

Other leaders who feature in the booklet include Manmohan Singh, Sheila Dikshit, Virbhadra Singh, Suresh Kalmadi, Ashok Chavan, A Raja, Ramalinga Raju, Kanimozhi, Dayanidhi Maran, Naveen Jindal and Sonia’s son-in-law Robert Vadra.

Apart from accusing the Congress of hatching conspiracies and committing 18 different scams during its 10 years in power, the booklet, which has Sonia’s picture on the cover page, accuses her of being the prime conspirator.

The booklet mentions that Sonia’s actual name, as per her birth certificate, is Antonia Maino and goes on to allege that she lied about her education. “The claim that Sonia Gandhi did a diploma course in English from Cambridge University is a lie, while the truth is that she had never even attended college,” the booklet claims. The party also accused Sonia of being a KGB agent.

Alleging that the Congress committed scams worth over Rs 3 lakh crore till 2011, the booklet contains details and pictures of Congress leaders and their kin allegedly involved in these scams. It also mentions controversial cases pertaining to party leaders N D Tewari, Abhishek Manu Singhvi, Sajjan Kumar, Jagdish Tytler and Manu Sharma, whom the BJP has called “criminal personalities”.
