BJP: Delhi govt constructed toilets in schools, counted them as classrooms
Deccan ChronicleNew Delhi: The BJP on Friday said the vigilance directorate's report on “irregularities” in the construction of classrooms in Delhi government schools shows Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is only “worried about black money flowing to him and not about children's education”. At a press conference here, the BJP's national spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia cited the vigilance directorate's report in the matter and alleged “corrupt Gabbar” Kejriwal colluded with private company “Babbar and Babbar” to construct classrooms without floating a tender, violating the guidelines of the Central Vigilance Commission and Public Works Department. The vigilance directorate has recommended a probe by a “specialised agency” into alleged irregularities in the construction of classrooms for Delhi government schools, claiming it involved a “scam of Rs 1,300 crore”, official sources said on Friday. The CVC, in a report dated February 17, 2020, highlighted “glaring irregularities” in the construction of over 2,400 classrooms in Delhi government schools by the PWD.
