New Delhi: The BJP, which alleged that there was a scam of Rs 2,000 crore in the construction of classrooms in government schools, filed a complaint on Thursday with the Delhi Lokayukta against deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia and PWD minister Satyendar Jain.
The complaint by Delhi BJP president Manoj Tiwari accused the ministers of abuse of position and corruption in the construction of over 12,000 classrooms in government schools.
The Delhi BJP leaders, including its spokesperson Harish Khurana, media relations head Neelkant Bakshi, and media head Ashok Goyal, asserted that the party will stick to its ground to expose corruption in the matter.
“The legal and media team of Delhi BJP filed complaint on behalf of state president Mr Tiwari against the scam in the construction of classrooms by Delhi government. We promise to the people of Delhi that BJP will take this case to a logical end,” Mr Khurana said.
Mr Sisodia had, on Wednesday, sent a legal defamation notice to Mr Tiwari, Leader of Opposition Vijender Gupta, and BJP MP Parvesh Verma demanding their unqualified apology for their cooked up allegations against him.
Mr Tiwari and other BJP leaders had on Monday alleged that there was a scam of Rs 2,000 crore in the construction of 12,748 classrooms in schools run by the Delhi government.
