Latest reports have said that India Against Corruption [IAC] has rejected the allegations by ex-IPS officer YP Singh that Arvind Kejriwal and his team is hiding facts against alleged corruption by Agriculture Minister and NCP chief Sharad Pawar.
The statement issued by IAC states, “This is wrong to say that we did not raise alleged corruption of Sharad Pawar, we did raise this in our July agitation and we have uploaded all the documents related to Sharad Pawar on our website, yesterdays press conference against Nitin Gadkari was announce few days back and it was known to everyone that it will be against Nitin Gadkari alleged corruption.”
The above statement was issued by IAC on Thursday evening.
IAC had posted on its Facebook page saying that Sharad Pawar has misused his position and has severe charges of graft against him.
Further, the IAC statement said, “IAC has been saying this since long. Sharad Pawar was also one of the 15 ministers against whom Kejriwal, Sisodia and Gopal Rai were on fast for 10 days at Jantar Mantar from July 25.”
It said, “The charges against Sharad Pawar have once again been proved by Y P Singh. IAC congratulates Singh for his courage to speak up against such a powerful minister.”
However, IAC leader Manish Sisodia said that they are happy that YP Singh has come out with new facts and it is good if corrupt political big shots are exposed.
Further, Sisodai said, “We don’t exactly know why Y P Singh is saying so that we did not reveal documents against Sharad Pawar. He is a very good friend of ours. There is nothing like this.”
He said, “I think this issue should be confined to Sharad Pawar scam instead of taking it as Arvind Kejriwal vs Y P Singh war.”
