Finally, noose is tightening around Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal after it was revealed that his deputy and Education Minister Manish Sisodia had gained ‘unfair advantage’ by privatising liquor business in the State and giving multiple retail licences to big companies. AAP which rose to power as a party that fought corruption is finding its leaders embroiled in a slew of corruption charges. The first case that blew upon the face of the AAP leadership was a money-laundering case involving one of the key Ministers in the Cabinet, Satyendar Jain. After a probe by Enforcement Directorate, Jain was arrested on May 30, 2022. The ED on June 6 had seized Rs 2.85 crore cash and 133 gold coins weighing 1.80 kg from Satyendra Jain's aides during its day-long raid conducted at various places across Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR). The agency had also seized various incriminating documents and digital records during these raids. The most lethal slap on the AAP leadership’s face was the Abkari scam involving Kejriwal’s confident Manish Sisodia. Taking offence as the best form of defence, AAP tried to cleverly deflect the issue by enlisting Sisodia’s performance as Education Minister. But AAP’s rivals were in no mood to let him off the hook so easily. They alleged that the AAP Government had allowed ‘cartelisation’ in liquor business by giving multiple retail licenses to big companies. Addressing a press conference, BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra said the Delhi Government handed over wholesale liquor business to private players despite the expert panel recommending against it.
