Kirti Azad, Bishan Singh Bedi to suffer disciplinary measures from DDCA
Sabarmati: On Thursday, suspended BJP MP Kirti Azad questioned the party to mention the reason of his suspension.

Sources also said that in the meeting, a view gained ground that the message emerging from Azad’s suspension was that a whistleblower was being gagged.
Hitting out at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for using “vulgar” language against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Jaitley said, “People in positions are expected to act with restraint”. He said that the party had not followed the official process, and did not give a show cause notice in Parliament before taking the action against him. “I am just following prime minister’s policy of “neither will I be corrupt, nor will I let others be”, Azad said.
He has also sought to know the evidence of his “collusion” with the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party, a charge made against him by the BJP.
Defying the party’s whip, he also held a press conference, dragging Jaitley into the alleged DDCA scam and also making a small speech about the same in the Lok Sabha soon after the finance minister rubbished all the accusations.
Darbhanga MP Azad was expelled from the BJP following his tirade towards Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in reference to irregularities within the DDCA. That either elicited any reply from the party or led to any corrective action. “Now I will tell everyone”, he said, sounding defiant. There has not been a single instance or blemish in my association with BJP, which has given me every opportunity to work within the party constitution.
While talking to the media, Azad alleged that the CBI is indirectly helping DDCA by alerting the cricketing body through notices, resulting in “disappearance” of files. To that extent the party had overreached itself by suspending Azad from primary membership.
“BJP and RSS always speak about uprooting corruption”.
According to a report in the Hindustan Times, Arun Jaitley’s name was not part of that report.
It is yet another statement on Modi’s and BJP president Amit Shah’s style of functioning that is nothing but “my way or highway”, Surjewala said.

Suspended by BJP, Darbhanga MP Kirti Azad today threatened to make “more revelations” in the coming days and said he didn’t expect the party “to stoop so low” by acting against him for “speaking against corruption”.
