BJP says Kejriwal kingpin of excise policy scam, handcuffs getting close to him

“Roots of the excise policy ‘scam’ lead to the doorstep of corrupt Kejriwal. No one is above law and no corrupt person will be spared,” say BJP’s Gaurav Bhatia

The BJP on Sunday alleged that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is the “kingpin” of the excise policy “scam” and said handcuffs are getting close to him as nodes of corruption are being unravelled.

Addressing a press conference in New Delhi, BJP national spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia alleged that Mr. Kejriwal was busy indulging in corruption when Covid-affected people needed his help.

“Roots of the excise policy ‘scam’ lead to the doorstep of corrupt Kejriwal. No one is above law and no corrupt person will be spared,” he said.

Delhi BJP president Adesh Gupta, who also addressed the press conference, said, “Delhi’s excise policy has proved to be a corrupt one. Arvind Kejriwal is the kingpin of this entire scam.”

Mr. Bhatia said the AAP should tell within 24 hours why it withdrew the new excise policy if there was no corruption in the matter.

He said the AAP’s corruption is a bigger guarantee than the guarantee of ISI mark.

The Health Ministers of the AAP Governments in Delhi and Punjab are in jail on charges of corruption, he said.
