Kejriwal Sacks Minister Asim Khan on TV Over Corruption Charge

Khan also paraded a man named Javed, who he claimed to be the owner of the house, from whom he had allegedly demanded Rs 6 lakh as bribe. The CBI has also requested the Maharashtra government to preserve physical samples taken from Mukerjea after her recent hospitalisation. “This interaction will hopefully motivate their families to stand by them in their crusade against corruption”, said a senior AAP functionary. “He (Khan) is being removed till the CBI probe is on”. He is not a common man… he is not a builder… he is not a media person. A day after Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav said that his government was investigating the role of three unnamed individuals in the incident, Gandhi said that he was lying and trying to politicise the issue. Arvind kejriwal had come to power on the back on huge promises of eliminating corruption from the system.

Aam Aadmi Party’s sacked ministerAsim Ahmed Khan on Saturday evening claimed he was a victim of a conspiracy hatched by “big” and “small” leaders within the party.

“People know us that we are a party which will not tolerate corruption”. This year, after Bharti’s wife brought charges of domestic violence against him, he went missing for days before finally surrendering himself to the police.

In June, Jitender Tomar resigned as law minister for using a fake degree in his filings. Before the assembly elections this year, Uttam Nagar MLA Naresh Balyan was found to have hoarded vast quantities of liquor – probably meant to be distributed to sweeten prospective voters.

That may or may not be true.

Asim Ahmed Khan, a businessman, became part of the Kejriwal cabinet after winning an unlikely victory against veteran Shoaib Iqbal in Matia Mahal.

How clueless was Kejriwal of what his Minister was up to that it needed an Hour Long Recording to expose his Corruption? He underlined that this was a decision of the AAP government, and that the media did not unearth this episode.
