AAP guns for Gadkari, files complaint against BJP MP Sancheti

Firstpost  

The move came a day after AAP announced that its leader Anjali Damania will contest the Lok Sabha elections from Nagpur, a seat held by former BJP president Nitin Gadkari. Training its guns on the BJP in Maharashtra, the Aam Aadmi Party lodged a complaint with the Economic Offences Wing of the Nagpur Police on Monday alleging cheating and forgery by firms owned by the BJP’s Rajya Sabha MP Ajay Sancheti while procuring irrigation contracts worth crores of rupees from the Maharashtra government. The move came a day after AAP announced that its leader Anjali Damania will contest the Lok Sabha elections from Nagpur, a seat held by former BJP president Nitin Gadkari, who Sancheti is known to be very close to. “Ajay Sancheti in collusion with Anand Sancheti, Jigar P Thakkar alias Dattani, Vishal P Thakkar alias Dattani and others continued to bid for and obtain contracts from VIDC both the old as well as new company names, thus circumventing the three works maximum rule,” it alleged and claimed that after the name change, the corporate entity Shaktikumar M Sancheti stopped existing, which means every document prepared in its name amounts to a ‘forged document’.
