Opposition BJP today alleged that the ruling Aam Aadmi Party, which spoke about sending corrupt Congressmen to jail, is now trying to save them.
"The AAP spoke of sending the corrupt ministers and officers under Sheila Dikshit government to jail. Its leaders are now busy protecting the corrupt Congressmen due to the connivance between Arvind and Arvinder," Leader of Opposition Harsh Vardhan said in a statement.
He also accused AAP of breaking the tradition of the Legislative Assembly.
"Chief Minister left the house during the election of Speaker which indicates his ego. On the very first day the ministers and legislators of AAP entered the house wearing cap of their party. This is an insult to the House.
"The new government had promised that it will end the VIP culture...But many ministers accepted cars with VIP numbers. The chief minister had also announced through posters that he should be called chief servant in place of chief minister. What happened to this promise?," he asked.
He went on to say that after taking oath at Ramlila Maidan, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had promised that he will issue a help line number for getting the corrupt people caught but, "it seems he has forgotten his promise due to his alliance with corrupt Congress party."
This had become clear when the CM said that the Leader of the Opposition should provide proof of corruption against former CM Sheila Dikshit, Vardhan claimed.
"It may be mentioned that on October 10, 2010, Kejriwal had himself filed an FIR at the Sansad Marg police station against the corruption of the then chief minister Sheila Dikshit.
"This case was not investigated due to the pressure of former Congress government. Will Kejriwal act in a time bound manner for investigation in the case and send the guilty persons to jail?," he asked.
