Eating spree: Kejriwal now accused of a Rs 1 crore samosa scam

Now the Aam Aadmi Party has been accused of a Rs 1 crore samosa scam. BJP's spokesperson, Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga put up posters in Delhi alleging that the Arvind Kejriwal led Delhi government had spent over Rs 1 crore of public money on tea and samosas in the last 18 months.

It is said that the information was found out by posting a query to the government under the Right to Information Act. The allegations come a few days after the AAP government was accused of misusing public funds on lunches at Kejriwal's residence. It was alleged the lunches cost Rs 13,000 per person.

Vijendra Gupta, the leader of the opposition in the Delhi assembly demanded Kejriwal's resignation over the issue. This was also termed as mind-boggling by union minister Piyush Goyal. The government is a custodian of public funds, but Kejriwal and his party have been misusing the same, he said.

The allegations were however denied by Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi, Manish Sisodia. He said that the bills were sent to him for approval, but he never cleared them. It appears as though the files which are with the L-G's office were leaked he also said.
