The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday leveled serious allegations of corruption against the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government, focusing specifically on the health department. According to Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva, a complaint was submitted to the Delhi Anti-Corruption Branch (ACB), which has taken cognizance and initiated an investigation.
Addressing the media, Sachdeva accused the AAP administration of being embroiled in corruption across various departments, including health and education. He criticized AAP for sidestepping responsibilities and merely holding press conferences whenever irregularities are pointed out. Sachdeva questioned the role of AAP ministers who often blame officers for corruption while presenting themselves as clean.
BJP MLA Vijender Gupta echoed these allegations, claiming that the Mohalla clinics and other hospitals have become hubs of corruption. Gupta mentioned that BJP MLAs had submitted a detailed report to the ACB, prompting them to take action, confirmed by an official letter from the anti-corruption body.
