New Delhi: Claiming that seizure made by CBI proves that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's office was raided on Tuesday, Aam Aadmi Party on Wednesday sought privilege motion against Union minister Arun Jaitley and the government for "misleading" Parliament over the issue.
AAP leader Ashutosh alleged that Jaitley lied on the floor of the House and this warrants a privilege motion against him and the government. "Since Jaitley has lied on the floor of the House and misled Parliament, this warrants privilege motion against him and the government,” he said.
"Seizure memo of CBI is in public. It establishes that CM office was raided/CM files were searched," Ashutosh said. Training guns on Jaitley, Ashutosh said the Union Finance Minister should come clean on the alleged irregularities in the DDCA.
The AAP's claims of raid on Delhi Secretariat was no more about the DDCA irregularities which the Delhi government intends to probe, he said.
"Mr Jaitley why don't u let CBI investigate DDCA scam? Why are you hiding behind technicalities? Mr Jaitley come clean on DDCA! Whole world knows it's den of corruption and you have been presiding for too long!! What is there in DDCA file that Mr Jaitley wants to hide from the world for which he sent CBI to CM office to grab that file??" Ashutosh tweeted.
Kejriwal also made fresh allegations against the CBI, accusing it of seizing documents "unrelated" to the agency's probe against his Principal Secretary and claimed that a file relating to DDCA was scrutinised by it.
