Continuing to attack the BJP over the alleged land scam of Ramjanmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and UP in-charge Sanjay Singh said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should enquire about the reason for postponement of temple construction from Trust members.
“I have written to the Sangh Pramukh and will produce the evidence of the scam before him,” Singh said while addressing mediapersons in Lucknow on Saturday.
“In the Ayodhya temple land scam, some BJP leaders are also involved besides the Trust members. I have given several pieces of evidence in the past and also presented the same in the media. But no action came against the corrupt BJP leaders and others involved in the fraud. The accused embezzled several crores of rupees in land deals and misused the donations given by the devotees of Lord Ram,” he said.
The AAP Rajya Sabha MP further said that the construction work for Ram temple was stopped for the last one and a half years. “The reason behind the delay was the fraudulent act in land purchase. I want to ask the PM as to why he did not quiz the Trust members on the score yet, even as the issue surfaced 12 days back,” he said.
Singh added that Ravi Mohan Tiwari, who is a relative of BJP’s Mayor in Ayodhya, had sold a land, valued as Rs 2 crore, to the Trust for 18 crore which he purchased for Rs 10 crore on April 19. Singh presented details on several other sale deeds during his address to mediapersons.
The AAP leader said that if the probe agencies were not capable of probing the Ayodhya land scam which shattered public trust, he hoped Sangh Pramukh would make public RSS’s viewpoint on the issue.
Without naming any party, Singh said even the most dormant government would have taken action against those involved in the scam but the BJP was shy of initiating action as the accused were its own party leaders.
Speaking on the oxygen audit controversy, Singh said that the PM was busy addressing election rallies in West Bengal when 3 lakh people were battling with Covid in the country and the Delhi chief minister was demanding oxygen for the 2 crore people of the Capital. “Is this the fault of CM Kejariwal,” he sought to know.
