Kejriwal launches counter-attack on Khurshid: Highlights

Mangalore Today News Network

New Delhi Oct 15, 2012 : After Law Minister Salman Khurshid said that he will not resign over allegations that his NGO embezzled funds granted by the Central government, Arvind Kejriwal has stepped up his attack on the minister. Below are the highlights:

    Yesterday Salman Khurshid held a press conference. He showed everyone photographs and said JB Singh was present. But later he was caught - photos were from 2010-2011, whereas the allegations pertain to 2009- 2010.

    Between last evening and this morning, media has brought out so many facts that I don’t think we need more evidence against Khurshid

    We have not found those people whose names are on the list (provided by Khurshid).
    Daya Ram, Son of Laxman, when we contacted him we found that he was not physically challenged
    He got a tricycle - on 27 May 2011 - they conducted his eye surgery.
    In another case - Pankaj Kumar, son of Ramesh Chand - the list says he was given a hearing aid, but when we met him he said he was not deaf, he had a problem with his foot.

    In NDTV, there is a story running that is showing that one guy got a hearing aid in 2011, but he had died in 2009.

    Here is a story in Dainik Jagaran, dated October 14; they say a camp in Sidharth Nagar wasn’t organized. They should be careful, Salman Khurshid may file a suit against them.
    If you steal, do it properly so that you are not caught (cites newspaper reports).

    Why is the Congress defending the trust? Is it their trust or Salman Khurshid’s trust?
    Kejriwal presents Pankaj Kumar, who says he hasn’t got anything from the camp
    Pankaj Kumar: I never went to the camp

    On the Mainpuri list, this man is no 21 on the list and the camp is said to have been held on May 27, 2011

    There is enough evidence in this case but the question is who will investigate this, Akhilesh Yadav?

    There is a disproportionate assets case pending against his father in Supreme Court - the counsel for the government against Mulayam Singh is appointed by the Law Minister.

    So Salman Khurshid will save Mulayam Singh and his son Akhilesh will save Khurshid.
