Parvesh Verma, the BJP’s candidate in the New Delhi assembly constituency, filed a complaint with the anti-corruption bureau against Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal, accusing him of being involved in alleged corruption linked to the Delhi Sports University.
Verma, the former BJP MP, will take on Arvind Kejriwal in the constituency. In his complaint, he alleged “corrupt misappropriation of public funds” through “the abuse of official positions to gain wrongful benefits”.
Parvesh Verma’s lawyer Vivek Garg told ANI that AAP and Kejriwal carried out “a huge fraud” with the students of the national capital and a complaint had been filed with the ACB on behalf of the BJP candidate.
He claimed Kejriwal and his ministers had embezzled ₹48 crore.
“This is a huge fraud where Arvind Kejriwal and his ministers have embezzled ₹48 crore on paper for which our team of lawyers have filed a complaint with the Anti-Corruption Branch on behalf of Parvesh Verma… the location he (Kejriwal) has mentioned does not even have a brick. This is a huge fraud with the students of Delhi…,” Garg said.
“Such expenditure requires the approval of the Cabinet, which includes the Finance Minister and the Education Minister and so they are all involved in this case… DCP Madam has assured us that there will be a fair investigation, and a high-level investigation of the case will start immediately… We have filed a complaint with RTI evidence…,” he added.
