BJP demands Sheila's resignation over corruption

Launching an attack on Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit over corruption during her regime, BJP's chief ministerial nominee Harsh Vardhan today said she should take moral responsibility and resign.
The Delhi government had indulged in corruption of more than Rs 7,000 crore in the Commonwealth Games. Institutions like CAG, CBI, CVC, CPWD and High Court have confirmed it. In spite of this, neither the central government had ordered any inquiry nor the Chief Minister was ready for a probe, he said.
"If the Chief Minister has any sense of morality and respect for the Constitution, then she should resign from her post and renounce politics,"Harsh Vardhan said in a statement.

Terming the distribution of provisional certificates for regularisation of unauthorised colonies as "lollypop", the BJP leader said, "In the last Assembly elections, the Congress government distributed lollypop of provisional certificates to 50 lakh residents of unauthorised colonies, but not a signal colony has been regularised till date."
Even the Lokayukta has written to President Pranab Mukherjee and his predecessor Pratibha Patil, requesting them to caution Dikshit against making false promises in future for the sake of getting political mileage, he added.
Vardhan said the government had promised supply of food grains to 72 lakh people under the Food Security Scheme. The CM should state where are the food grains, he added.

Crores of rupees have been looted in the DTC scam, Health scam, Education bungling, Jal Board bungling, Power Tariff scam, Water Leakage scam, Fast Running Meters of Power and Water scam, PDS scam, Ration Card scam, Vehicle Fitness scam, Pension scam, Unauthorised Colony Road Construction scam and in dozens of other scams, Harsh Vardhan said.
"In spite of this, the Chief Minister and her Cabinet colleagues have openly been saying that they have not committed any bungling. Isn't the Congress government misleading the people of Delhi?" he asked.
