The Delhi Assembly’s special session convened today is likely to be a stormy affair amid a slugfest over central probe agencies’ action in the Kejriwal government’s excise policy and the AAP accusing the BJP of trying to lure its MLAs.
Leader of Opposition in the Assembly Ramesh Bidhuri alleged that the ruling party has made the Assembly a “political arena”. “Convening a one-day session is a mockery of democracy,” he added. The Delhi Congress demanded that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his deputy Manish Sisodia apologise in the special session of the House for “lying about the liquor scam”. “The special session should decide on bringing out a White Paper on the liquor scam to bring out the truth,” said Delhi Congress president Anil Chaudhary.
A high-voltage drama unfolded on Thursday with Kejriwal summoning the AAP MLAs at his residence as he accused the BJP of trying to topple his government by offering Rs 800 crore to 40 of his legislators for switching sides and asked if this money came from GST collections, PM CARES Fund or some of its “friends”.
