The Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party President Sh. Vijay Goel today termed the move to register an FIR in CWG corruption as an eyewash as no Congress leader has been named in the FIR. Sh. Goel also demanded that AAP should come out openly and let the people know its action plan to handle the power crisis in the Capital.
“AAP is taking decisions behind closed doors. It should come out openly and answer the following questions:
In case license of present Discoms is cancelled, will any other company be immediately in a position to take over the power supply?
On what rates a new power supply company will provide power to the consumers?
What will be the cost of hiring a new company and how much will be burden on the exchequer?
What is AAP doing to end monopoly in power supply? Why it is not inviting more than one power companies through open bidding?
If NTPC stops supplying power to the BSES in Delhi, what is the government’s back plan to ensure that there is uninterrupted power supply?
Why 50% reduction in power tariff is not getting reflected in power bills?
What is AAP doing to rollback the recent hike of 8% in power tariff?
“There is complete non-transparency in the way AAP government is handling power crisis. There seems to be no backup plan with the government for handling the immediate power crisis. We are warning the CM and its ministers that it should immediately come out with its action plan on power sector,” said Sh. Goel.
“The crisis witnessed in the power sector is the result of lack of administrative seriousness in this government. It also appears that another political drama is being played out by AAP without caring for the problems faced by common people,” said Sh. Goel.
On the issue of corruption also, the Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal continues to protect the corrupt. Sh. Goel said, “The BJP had handed over the evidence of involvement of Congress leaders in the CWG scams. It has been consistently demanding registering of cases against former Chief Minister Smt Sheila Dikshit and other Congress ministers and leaders for the widespread corruption in CWG games. But it is surprising that AAP government has not named even a single Congress leader in the FIR.”
“Had the AAP government really been serious about nailing the corrupt for corruption in the CWG, it would have named them in the FIRs. But it is clear now that Kejriwal is protecting the corrupt in Congress in lieu of the support it has got to run his government,” said Sh. Goel.
Sh. Goel reiterated that the BJP wants AAP ministers Somnath Bharti and Manish Sisodaia to be dismissed as they have found to be indulging in corrupt and unethical practices. The BJP will continue to hold protests and agitations till these two ministers are dismissed, said Sh. Goel.
