DDCA issue: BJP demands apology from Kejriwal, clean chit to Jaitley

New Delhi: After a three-member probe panel delivered a clean chit to Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in DDCA issue, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) today demanded an apology from Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for his allegations against the minister.

Talking to reporters here, BJP spokesperson M.J. Akbar said that Kejriwal, targeting Jaitley, had alleged that the Central Bureau of Investigation team that raided office of his principal secretary had gone through a file relating to the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) but noted that the inquiry report does not talk of Jaitley.

“Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal should apologise to Arun Jaitley,” he said.

The Aam Aadmi Party has been demanding resignation of Jaitley, accusing him of involvement in alleged irregularities in DDCA during his term as chief of the association.
