Lally

MEMORANDUM **

Surjit Singh Lally, a native and citizen of India, petitions for review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) summarily affirming an immigration judge’s denial of his application for asylum and withholding of removal. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review for substantial evidence, Singh-Kaur v. INS, 183 F.3d 1147, 1149 (9th Cir.1999), and deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the IJ’s adverse credibility determination because Lally’s testimony was vague and implausible. See id. at 1152-53 . Because Lally did not testify credibly, he did not estab *50 lish eligibility for asylum or withholding of removal. See Mahli v. INS, 336 F.3d 989, 992 (9th Cir.2003). We do not consider L ally’s contention that he is eligible for relief under the Convention Against Torture as he never applied for such relief.

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
