Kejriwal’s ex-secretary called by CBI for alleged corruption case

CBINew Delhi:The CBI on Tuesday called the staff of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s principal secretary Rajendra Kumar for questioning in connection with its probe into an alleged corruption case against him, an official said.

“Two-three members of (Rajendra Kumar) Kumar’s staff were called for questioning,” a CBI official told IANS on condition of anonymity.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) had earlier said the documents seized from the office of Kumar “prima facie reflect criminal conspiracy and criminal misconduct and abuse of official position by the accused persons”.

The CBI had conducted raid on Kumar’s office on December 15 last year at the Delhi Secretariat.

The issue came to light after Kejriwal on Tuesday tweeted and alleged that his staff was also called for questioning. “The CBI summons Delhi chief minister’s staff ‘informally’ on phone without notice. Staff of other ministers called earlier like this.”

The CBI, however, denied that it called Kejriwal’s staff for questioning.

Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.

Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.

 

The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar.
