BJP protecting corrupt Delhi Chief Secretary: Aam Admi Party

New Delhi, July 19: Delhi’s ruling AAP on Thursday accused the BJP of protecting the Chief Secretary - accused of taking bribes from corrupt officials - and demanded a CBI probe into the matter. Citing Dr Avinash Kumar of Aruna Asaf Ali Hospital who had accused Chief Secretary Anshu Prakash and four of his predecessors of taking bribes of Rs 10 lakh per annum to protect the corrupt, Aam Aadmi Party MP Sanjay Singh told media here that this incident sends a clear message to people of Delhi “that the BJP is protecting the Chief Secretary” and is “standing with the corrupt”.

Senior AAP leader Dilip K Pandey also said the way BJP is protecting the corrupt only means that the party “is getting their fair share out of it.” “It is natural to assume that the Chief Secretary took the money and if not, then he should come forward and tell why he has been sitting over files instead of taking action against the corrupt,” he said.
