Aam Admi Party today demanded a CBI enquiry into alleged corruption at BJP ruled North Delhi Municipal Corporation charging that money was being pocketed by senior leaders of the party.
"AAP asks BJP leadership in Delhi and also the Prime Minister Narendra Modi for a CBI enquiry into the role of BJP leaders who have pocketed corruption money from NDMC," AAP's Delhi unit convener Dilip Pandey said.
Hitting at Delhi BJP president Satish Upadhyay, Pandey claimed that North Delhi mayor Ravindra Gupta's letter written to Upadhyay "proves" that corruption was "committed" in the contract for sanitation work.
"Gupta has warned in his letter to Satish Upadhyay that if the party does not take any action against his corrupt colleagues, he will expose the party in the public," he said.
AAP has also asked the BJP to share report, if any, into the allegations of NDMC leader Yogendra Chandolia against the Mayor Gupta as well as the latter's allegations against the BJP leaders.
