Biggest scam of decade exposed, says BJP

-

Reacting to new allegation­s of former AAP minister Kapil Mishra, the BJP has said that the money laundering through hawala route in Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is the biggest scam of the decade because it is perpetrate­d by experts with several years of practical experience in the field.

Delhi BJP chief Manoj Tiwari said that as Arvind Kejriwal does not believe in moral values, all that BJP is trying to say to AAP is that it is okay for them to be in power on the basis of numbers, but they should at least bring in an interim chief minister till the inquiry into the scams is going on.

Mr Tiwari alleged that earlier, India Against Corruption (IAC) and later the AAP was formed with the express intention of fighting corruption in politics.

However, today it stands as a symbol of blackmail, black deeds, and as a benefactor of the corrupt and corruption, he added.

“The lieutenant-governor should assess the political situation with a possibilit­y to dismiss Kejriwal government,” demanded Mr Tiwari.

Leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly Vijender Gupta said, “AAP, which claims itself to be the only imandar and a flag bearer of morality in politics, instead of diverting the real issue of public fund looting by its head and blaming the BJP, should file a defamation suit against Mr Mishra who once was the blueeyed-boy of the chief minister. But it is sure that AAP being afraid of Mr Mishra, is not going to do so, because he (Mr Mishra) may have many more skeletons of corrupt leaders of the party in his cupboard.”

The Delhi BJP appealed to the Union finance minister, Arun Jaitley, to order a complete investigat­ion of the role of Axis Bank in AAP’s financial scams.

“It is pertinent to note that a senior official of Axis Bank has been reportedly very close to Mr Kejriwal’s political set up too,” said the party.
