After waging war on Chief Economic Advisor
Arvind Subramanian, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Subramanian Swamy on
Wednesday said that he has a list of 27 people with him, who are working within
the government and need to be 'fixed'.
Staying true to his promise of training guns
on bureaucrats 'loyal' to the Congress, Swamy said that he Subramanian to be
sacked, as he had badmouthed India in the international arena and had also
encouraged the grand old party to become rigid on their GST Bill clauses.
Speaking to ANI here after he tweeted against Arvind,
Swamy reiterated his salvo he had used against RBI Chief Raghuram Rajan, saying
that the CEA was a 'green card holder' and was probably not an Indian citizen.
"He used to work in America and he is
also a green card holder type. I don't even know if he is a citizen or not but
I'm sure he has a green card. There was this American Congress Committee for
pharmaceutical purposes and they held a hearing to figure out India's opinion
on the matter. There he said in a statement that India was not working
according to America in this matter and for that, they should be taught a
lesson in WTO. How can we can such a person an advisor here?," Swamy said.
Continuing his assault, he added that when
Arvind was appointed by the Indian government, he gave a note to the Finance
Ministry asserting that the clauses given by the Congress in the GST Bill were
absolutely justified.
"I think that such people who can fail
our government should be tossed out. Now, it's been two years and I think it's
about time. I have a list of 27 people in the government and I will slowly, one
by one, fix them soon," he added.
Earlier in the day, Swamy had launched a
scathing attack on Arvind in a series of tweets.
"Who said to US Cong on 13/3/13 the US
should act against India to defend US Pharmaceuticals interests? Arvind
Subramanian MoF !! Sack him!!! Guess who encouraged Congi to become rigid on
GST clauses ? Jaitely's economic adviser Arvind Subramanian of Washington
DC," he tweeted.
This development comes days after Swamy
announced that his next 'project' is to expose a group of bureaucrats loyal to
Congress Chief Sonia Gandhi.
"My next project is to expose 27
bureaucrats who are in various Ministries and loyal to TDK. They were
handpicked and positioned by PC," Swamy said in a tweet.
Earlier, Swamy had welcome Rajan's decision
to leave his post as the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor on the completion
of his term, saying that he had taken such a step in order to save his 'self
respect'.
"Was he getting a second term in the
first place? How do we know that he was getting a second term? I have no
information that he was getting a second term. So if he says he wants to go and
wants to save his self respect, I have no problem. Let them pretend that he is
giving up and going but as long as he goes, it's good," Swamy told ANI.
Swamy had written to Prime Minister Narendra
Modi in May asking for the dismissal of the Reserve Bank of India governor.
Rajan had earlier announced that he would
return to the academic world at the end of his term on September 4, 2016,
adding he will always be available to serve his country when needed and
asserted that his 'successor' would take the nation to new heights.
Rajan is currently on leave from the Chicago
Booth School of Business where he holds the post of Distinguished Service
Professor of Finance.
