Kirti Azad says he will hold presser on Sunday on “corruption”
The CBI spokesperson countered that Kejriwal’s office was neither searched nor sealed, and whatever was taken away was related to corruption allegations against Rajendra Kumar.
Reacting strongly to AAP’s charge of corruption Arun Jaitley posted his blog titled “Falsehood As Free Speech” on Facebook in which he wrote, “It is a part of propaganda technique to deflect attention when you yourselves are in the dock”.
The second problem with the Aam Aadmi Party’s tirade, which has to do with timing, is as important to understanding Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s tactics.
Showering praise on Jaitley, she said he had written his name in “golden letters in history” with his dedication and work and Kejriwal’s attempts to protect a corrupt officer amounted to abdicating the anti-corruption movement from which he had shot to limelight.
“Federalism isn’t a-one method flow”.
The BJP fielded Union HRD minister Smriti Irani to say that the party “resolutely stands behind” the finance minister who has an “impeccable” political record.
I have left cricket administration in 2013. “The Delhi government is initiating a probe into this matter”, he said.
Sources said that BCCI bosses have never held back the funds of DDCA. It is the habit of Kejriwal ji and his party to lie.
” an really fake propaganda has been repeated constantly”. The Chief Minister’s office was raided.
Meanwhile BJP’s National Secretary Srikant Sharma also backed Finance Minister Jaitley, saying no questions can be raised on his integrity after the AAP’s allegations. “By openly distancing themselves from Mr Kejriwal’s language, both Main Ministers have to receive themselves”, he requested.
“If you want to discuss the role of Arun Jaitley in the DDCA, then ask Kirti Azad as to how many scams there were in the DDCA”.
He also rejected AAP’s allegation that money allocated for a DDCA stadium’s construction was siphoned off.
AAP leader Raghav Chadha claimed that DDCA had a budget of Rs 24 crore but additional Rs 90 crore was also spent.
Jaitley said Kejriwal doesn’t have legislation to research the DDCA, a business had actually no legislation in purchasing a Fee of Request from the prior Sheila Dikshit government whilst the energy vests using the Main government and authorized under Government of India.
“CBI kept reading DDCA file in my office”.
He said these technical and procedural violations were all compoundable and were compounded by members against whom they were alleged. The UPA government seized the opportunity and referred the complaints to the SFIO which investigated all his complaints over a period of time and submitted a detailed report on March 21, 2013. “Did Jaitley know about these companies and is this not corruption?” he asked. “Where did the remaining Rs 57 crore go?”
Of the total expenditure on the stadium, he said, the initial structure contract was given on bidding to EPIL, a PSU unit, which further hired other contractors.
