Chargesheet to stop me from regularising colonies: Jain
Mr Jain said when asked about the chargesheet on the sidelines of an event at the Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences.
New Delhi: Delhi PWD and urban development and health minister Satyendar Jain claimed on Tuesday that a chargesheet was filed to stop him from regularising unauthorised colonies in the city.
His remarks come after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Monday filed a chargesheet against Jain, his wife and a few others in a disproportionate assets case.
“This keeps happening and now it’s a part of life. Nothing new,” Mr Jain said when asked about the chargesheet on the sidelines of an event at the Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences.
“These people want that such (unauthorised) colonies should not be regularised. That’s why it is being done, so let them do it,” he said, without elaborating who they are.
Chief minister Arvind Kejriwal had earlier reiterated the charge that the case was registered against his cabinet minister for making a scheme for regularisation of unauthorised colonies in the national capital.
The chief minister alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has not got this case registered against the Delhi PWD and urban development and health minister Satyendar Jain, but against every person living in unauthorised colonies.
