The BJP on Saturday apprised the Central Vigilance Commissioner (CVC) of the alleged тАЬgrave financial irregularitiesтАЭ in the procurement of 1,000 low-floor DTC buses.
BJP Rohini MLA Vijender Gupta sought CVCтАЩs intervention to punish the alleged culprits and cited the тАЬarbitrary mannerтАЭ in which the work order for 1,000 low-floor buses was put in abeyance.
тАЬThe timing of withdrawing the purchase order of 1,000 low-floor DTC buses is suspicious. Just when financial bungling has come out in the public domain and an investigation ordered, the Delhi government seems to have hurriedly put the lid on the matter, hoping the allegations would die down,тАЭ Mr. Gupta alleged.
Mr. Gupta alleged the Delhi government had a тАЬspecial relationshipтАЭ with one of the bus suppliers which had been given the bus contract.
тАЬIn light of the irrefutable evidence pointing to corruption, the Delhi governmentтАЩs connivance with the private company also becomes a matter of investigation,тАЭ he wrote.
