Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s troubles in the Delhi liquor scam case are not decreasing. CBI has made such a claim before the court, which has created a stir. CBI says that Arvind Kejriwal had promised to give Rs 90 lakh each to every candidate in the Goa Assembly elections. CBI claimed that it has evidence of this. Actually, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is currently lodged in Tihar Jail. He has got bail in the ED case related to excise policy, but he is still waiting for relief in the CBI case.
In fact, the CBI i.e. Central Bureau of Investigation claimed before the Delhi court on Tuesday that the money earned from the excise ‘scam’ was spent as per the wishes of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. He had promised to give Rs 90 lakh each to each candidate of his party in the 2022 Goa Assembly elections. The CBI made this argument before Special Judge Kaveri Baweja, who extended the judicial custody of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal till September 3 in the corruption case related to the excise policy ‘scam’.
What promise did Arvind Kejriwal make?
CBI urged the court to take cognizance of the chargesheet filed against Kejriwal and others. Special public prosecutor DP Singh, appearing for the CBI, told the court, ‘The entire money has been spent as per the wishes of Arvind Kejriwal… The entire money was given to finance the Aam Aadmi Party. He (Kejriwal) had promised to give Rs 90 lakh to each candidate in each constituency and there are 40 constituencies in Goa.’
Who else was arrested by CBI?
The CBI claimed that Arvind Kejriwal was the main proponent of the election and AAP’s communications in-charge Vijay Nair, appointed by the CM, had negotiated the deal with the South Group. Actually, the court of Special Judge Kaveri Bajeja was hearing arguments to consider the fourth supplementary charge sheet filed by the CBI. In this charge sheet, Arvind Kejriwal and five others – Durgesh Pathak, Amit Arora, Vinod Chauhan, Ashish Mathur and P Sarath Reddy – have been named in the liquor scam.
