AAP accused Lt. Governor with impropriety in transfer of officers

New Delhi, April 5: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Thursday accused Lt. Governor (LG) Anil Baijal of impropriety in transfer of officers and not taking action against corrupt officers.

AAP MLA Saurabh Bharadwaj during a discussion on the outcome report relating to LG's office tabled in the Delhi Assembly said Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had requested the LG thrice to remove the "corrupt food commissioner" but he did not.

"We never faced corruption allegations for transfer and posting of officers during the one year period when Services Department was with us. But today, the rate is fixed at LG's office for desired postings.

"That is why he is keeping Services (Department) with himself," he said.
