Bedi backs Kejriwal in tirade against DDCA

Azad is a BJP MP from Bihar. I want to tell him that these are criminal and punishable acts as per company laws, ” Ashutosh said.

Earlier, Jaitley had maintained the statement on his blog that he had not been personally accused by anyone and that appropriation of funds from DDCA were just minor “irregularities” which had been dealt with.

Jaitley denied corruption charges levelled against him by the AAP and also the Congress regarding the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA), which he headed for years.

Ashutosh also questioned BJP’s silence on these allegations and described Jaitley as a “master of half-truth and handsome lies”.

The AAP and the BJP were locked in a bitter war on Thursday, with Kejriwal seeking Finance Minister resignation for corruption and the latter accusing the AAP leader of spreading “untruth and falsehood”. He, however, said that not only DDCA, the story was the same in all sports bodies in the country.

BJP and DDCA brass responded to allegations that the cost for refurbishing Kotla escalated from Rs 24 crore to Rs 114 crore, pointing out that the scope of the initial plan was radically revised.

Jaitley said the DDCA was able to nearly double the seating capacity of the stadium and add modern amenities for spectators after it got corporate sponsors and BCCI significantly hiked its support from Rs 4 crore to Rs 50 crore.
