Modi govt wants to keep power of transfer with itself: AAP

Hitting out at the BJP government at the Centre, AAP today accused the Narendra Modi-led dispensation of wanting to keep the power of transfers and postings of bureaucrats with itself through the Lt Governor as it is a "million dollar industry".
In a series of tweets, AAP leader Ashutosh also alleged that lakhs of rupees were being paid as bribe to get lucrative postings in the BJP-led Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD).
"Ask anybody in Delhi and people will tell you that BJP led MCD is the most corrupt body. AAP has stopped bribe in transfer/posting.
"Lakhs of rupees are paid as bribe to get a lucrative posting and money is distributed top to bottom. Every body has a share. Why MODI govt wants to keep transfer/posting with itself through LG? Because it's a million dollar industry & major source of corruption," he posted on Twitter.

The senior AAP leader also took a jibe at bureaucrats a day after over 100 serving and retired IAS officials of the AGMUT (Arunachal Pradesh-Goa-Mizoram-Union Territories) cadre expressed "anguish" over the way senior officials were being treated in the ongoing tussle between the AAP government and Lt Governor Najeeb Jung over appointment of officials.
"It will be interesting to study how many belonging to IAS association were clean when in service!
"IAS association was sleeping like Kumbhkaran when Home Secretary and Foreign Secretary were humiliated and removed," he tweeted.
