In a jab at the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), BJP leader and North East Delhi MP Manoj Tiwari on Thursday said that for the first time in the history of the country, a political party has been directly accused of looting money.
Referring to AAP being named as an accused by the Enforcement Directorate in the Delhi excise policy case, Mr. Tiwari said the party has made “history”, as in the past, only individuals or groups of individuals were chargesheeted.
“It is not just a single individual or group of corrupt leaders, but an entire political party that has been directly accused of looting the public treasury’s money meant for the welfare of the people of Delhi,” he said.
“No other party in the country has come forward with a self-declared tag of being as ‘moral’ as the Aam Aadmi Party, but today that very party has created a unique history of corruption,” he added.
Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot has sought a report from the State government on a complaint that the Mysuru Urban Development Authority (MUDA) had taken up works amounting to ₹387 crore in violation of rules in Varuna and Srirangapatna Assembly constituencies, allegedly on Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s oral instructions.
“We are organising a health research convention, which comprises a couple of workshops, community-based learning, and also cardiac care. We also included a one-day seminar on medical education, how medical education has evolved in India and the U.K., and what we can learn from each other” said Dr. Piruthivi Sukumar Dean of the International Faculty of Medicine & Health, University of Leeds during his interaction with The Hindu.
