The Delhi BJP today stepped up its attack on the AAP, saying it will lodge a complaint with the Election Commission for the party's alleged involvement in corruption cases and seek its derecognition.
The saffron party's Delhi unit chief Manoj Tiwari, at a press conference here, alleged that there were "gross discrepancies" in the figures of donation amount shown by the AAP in its affidavits, party website, and what it has declared to the EC.
Based on a report by a TV channel, he alleged there were dissimilarities in the figures which Delhi's ruling party gave about donations received by it to the Election Commission and the Income Tax department, and what was put out on its website.
"And, discrepancies exist in donation figures for both years, 2013-14 and 2014-15," Tiwari said.
"So, based on the past and this new corruption case, a delegation of the party will go and meet the chief election commissioner at 4 PM to lodge a complaint. We will also urge the EC to probe the entire accounts of the AAP. And based on the string of irregularities being exposed, we will also ask the EC to derecognise the party," Tiwari said.
