AAP seeks privilege motion against Jaitley for ‘misleading’ parliament

In fact, as Arun Jaitley spoke of the matter in Parliament, Kejriwal stuck to Twitter as his medium, posting “Why is Jaitley ji so scared of DDCA probe?”

“CBI lying. My own personal office raided”.

BJP leaders condemned the languge used by Kejriwal to target Modi and demanded an apology from the AAP chief. The agency said they recovered Rs 3 lakh and some documents in the raid.

Kejriwal said his government had set up an inquiry committee to probe alleged irregularities in DDCA which had submitted its report and he was to set up a Commission of Inquiry to carry out a detailed probe in the wrongdoings in the cricket body. “It establishes that CM office was raided/CM files were searched”, Ashutosh said. Kejriwal claimed that the CBI kept reading files related to Delhi & District Cricket Association (DDCA) in his office and did not seize any files related to Kumar. However, Jaitley rubbished all the accusations saying, “I don’t think I should comment on rubbish”. A meeting was convened and with no clarity on why the CBI was raiding his office, AAP leaders started calling up officials to find out about the cases against Principal Secretary, Rajendra Kumar.

Union setting minister Prakash Javadekar termed Kejriwal’s response as “atrocious” and accused the latter of “defending” corrupt and interesting in “worst type of politics” by concentrating on Modi for the identical.

The CBI denied that its officials searched the Delhi Chief Ministers office on Tuesday.

Why didnt the CBI raid offices of ministers in Sheila Dikshit government?

The man in the eye of the storm in the national capital, Rajendra Kumar, is principal secretary to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

At present, searches were being conducted at 14 locations in Delhi and Uttar Pradesh and CBI officials have recovered another Rs 10.5 lakh from co-accused GK Nanda, General Manager of Telecommunications Consultants India Limited (TCIL) and former MD of ICSIL(Intelligent Communications System India Limited). In an apparent reference to the Centre’s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, Banerjee said her party Trinamool Congress was not like those which use religion to meet political ends.

“Why don’t you apologise to the country for your misdeeds first and then I’ll apologise for my words”, Kejriwal added, in an apparent reference to Modi’s refusal to apologise over deadly communal riots in Gujarat when he was chief minister in 2002.
