Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party questioned the Aam Aadmi Party leader for not expelling its councilor Geeta Rawat who was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) for allegedly accepting bribes for permitting laying of a building roof unhindered.
Delhi BJP Spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor said that the baseless campaign of leveling a series of allegations against BJP councilors being run by Aam Aadmi Party leaders, has fallen flat and the dual character of AAP leaders towards corruption too stands exposed now. For the last 2-3 years AAP leaders have been alleging that BJP Councilors patronize illegal construction but the same AAP leaders have gone underground after their party Councilor was caught red handed, he said.
The central probe agency booked Rawat, municipal councillor, Ward 10-E, East Delhi Municipal Council (EDMC), and an unidentified person on the allegations of demanding a bribe of Rs 20,000 from the complainant for extending him a favour to lay the roof of his building in an unhindered manner.
