Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi had earlier today said that Prime Minister Modi who believes discouraging corruption, should answer on Kirti Azad’s suspension. “I don’t think the party should lose an honest person like him”, Swamy said. I was only speaking against corruption in DDCA”, he said “I hope the Prime Minister will listen to my plea and do justice.
The BJP also issued a show-cause notice to Azad seeking an explanation for his “anti-party activities”.
His remarks came a day after BJP cracked the whip and suspended cricketer-turned-MP Azad, charging him with indulging in anti-party activities and accusing him of “colluding” with Congress and AAP to bring it to “disrepute”. Azad alleged on Thursday that evidence was “vanishing” from the offices of the DDCA.
BJP chief Amit Shah had ordered Azad’s suspension on Wednesday for publicly targeting Finance Minister Arun Jaitley with allegations of irregularities in DDCA during his tenure.
“Have acquired discover, will reply to it. Subramanian Swamy has informed me that he’ll assist me in drafting reply to the discover”, Azad advised the media right here.
Azad maintained that his fight was only against alleged corruption in the DDCA and not against any individual and asked for “specific reasons” for the disciplinary action against him by the party.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Wednesday suspended Azad from the party for what the party dubbed “anti-party activities” after he alleged large-scale corruption in Delhi’s cricket body when it was headed by Jaitley. “I have worked honestly for the party but I was branded anti-party”. I only highlighted some issues related to corruption.
In a related development, over 100 supporters of Azad, who was in the Indian cricket team that won the 1983 World Cup, staged a noisy protest outside the BJP headquarters here against his suspension.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. who has been at the forefront of the attack on Jaitley, said, “There is no democracy in BJP”.
