On Thursday, Delhi minister and Aam Aadmi Party leader Atishi issued an open challenge to the BJP and demanded that ruling party to provide a single proof for the arrest of RS leader Sanjay Singh in connection with the alleged liquor scam.
At a press conference, AAP leader said, “I want to challenge the BJP that even if a single rupee of corruption is found from Sanjay Singh’s residence, then the proof should be presented before the country. I want to ask the BJP that they have raided Sanjay Singh’s residence, I invite them to send ED, and CBI to raid his paternal house and his bank locker. I can challenge that not even a single paisa of corruption would be found,” the Delhi Minister said.
She further added, “They are investigating the liquor scam. The ED and CBI have deployed more than 500 officers on this investigation for the last 15 months.”
“But even after 15 months, these agencies along with the BJP-led central government have not been able to present proof of corruption of even one rupee before the court or before the country,” she added.
“First, they conducted raids at Manish Sisodia’s house. They could not find anything there, they conducted raids at his locker, his office and even his paternal home. But the BJP doesn’t need any proof, they arrested Sisodia ji without even a single proof of corruption,” she said.
“The same incident is taking place with Sanjay Singh. Yesterday, Ed conducted raids at his 4-room house. They stayed there for 8 hours and raided it for 8 hours, searching every nook and corner of the house but could not find anything” Atishi added.
Singh and his associates were allegedly involved in Delhi government’s decision to grant licences to alcohol retailers and merchants in 2020 resulted in losses for the state exchequer and violated anti-corruption laws, the agency stated.
