Opposition leader Vijender Gupta alleged AAP ministers had travelled abroad with their peons without taking the requisite approvals.

“Public funds to the tune of several crore rupees have been wasted on these foreign trips. Since the L-G has intervened, the expenditure details will be revealed after September 12. Delhi CM, deputy CM, and the ministers have violated rules by appointing their acquaintances as staff members,” said Gupta.

Meanwhile, Delhi BJP president Satish Upadhyay has written to Anna Hazare, asking him to come to Jantar Mantar and expose the misdeeds of the AAP.

“Delhiites had voted AAP to power because they believed Arvind Kejriwal was the product of a jan andolan. But the Kejriwal government has betrayed them. It is insensitive, corrupt and immoral,” said Upadhyay.
