Ramvir Singh Bidhuri's Press Conference Statement From February 14 2023, As The Opposition Leader In The Delhi Assembly
New Delhi: Leader of Opposition in Delhi Assembly Ramvir Singh Bidhuri has said that the arrest of three persons in the Delhi Jal Board scam is not enough. An FIR should also be lodged against Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in this scam because as the chairman of the Jal Board, he was fully aware of the scam.
Bidhuri said that in the year 2015, the Delhi Jal Board gave the authority to Corporation Bank to collect the bills of the Delhi Jal Board, but Corporation Bank gave this work to another company and the second company also gave it to a third company. Instead of depositing the cash and cheques received from the consumers with the Jal Board, the company deposited them in fake accounts. This scam was going on in Delhi Jal Board since 2015. There was a nexus between Jal Board officials, fund collector agents appointed by the Jal Board and the bank officials who embezzled hundreds of crores of rupees in this scam. Shri Yaser Jilani, Delhi BJP spokesperson was also present in the press conference.
