A day after the CBI raid at the home of Delhi’s Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia over corruption allegations in the liquor policy, Union Minister Anurag Thakur suggested a new spelling of Sissodia’s name. He spelt Manish as MONEY SHH and showed it to the media alleging that he makes money and maintains silence.

Addressing a press conference right after Sisodia’s press conference in Delhi, Thakur also termed the AAP government a Bevri Sarkar (the government of drinkers). The AAP should not try to divert attention from the excise scam by raising other issues as its real face has been unmasked, he said.

Manish Sisodia is accused no 1 while Arvind Kejriwal is the kingpin. This AAP government is Rewari and Bevari, Thakur said.

Manish Sisodia, Delhi’s Deputy Chief Minister and a trusted lieutenant of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal is no stranger to controversies. He found himself at the centre of yet another controversy on Saturday, a day after the CBI raided his residence over alleged corruption in the Delhi government’s now-withdrawn Delhi Excise Policy 2021-22.

The genesis of this high-level CBI raid can be traced back to July 8, when Delhi Chief Secretary Naresh Kumar had submitted a report to lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena, accusing Sisodia of providing undue benefits to liquor licensees in lieu of kickbacks and commissions that AAP allegedly utilised in February’s Punjab assembly elections.

Without missing any opportunity of targeting Delhi’s government, the Congress, following its opposition BJP’s path, sharpened its attack on Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and also demanded the arrest and resignation of Delhi’s Deputy CM over his alleged involvement in a corruption case in implementing the Delhi Excise Policy.

The BJP described him as the kingpin of the liquor scam in the capital while Congress leaders Alka Lamba, Shama Mohammed and Abhishek Dutt said he should resign from his post.

Earlier, Delhi Congress Chief Anil Kumar said the party wrote to the then Police Commissioner of Delhi, Rakesh Asthana, in June informing him of a multi-crore scam in the illegal distribution of liquor licences to shell companies.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Friday slammed the BJP over Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra’s expulsion from the Lok Sabha after a debate on the cash-for-query allegations. She said the move was unacceptable and betrayed India’s parliamentary democracy.

Talking to the media, Banerjee said she felt sad to see the attitude of the BJP. She questioned how the BJP can betray parliamentary democracy. She said the BJP did not even allow Mahua to explain her stand in the House. She added full injustice had been done to the expelled MP.

Banerjee said the Trinamool Congress stands in full support of Moitra. She said the BJP could not defeat the Trinamool in elections, so they have resorted to vendetta politics. She said Moitra will return to Parliament with a bigger mandate. Banerjee said the BJP thought it can do whatever it wants as they have a brute majority. She added that a day will come when the BJP will not be in power.

After her expulsion from the Lok Sabha, Moitra told reporters outside Parliament that said will fight it out over the next 30 years inside and outside Parliament, inside the gutter and on the streets. She accused the BJP of hating Muslims and women. She claimed Adani was buying all of India’s ports and airports. She said Adani shareholders are foreign investors and the Home Ministry was giving them clearance to buy India’s infrastructure.

Reacting to her expulsion, Moitra said there was no evidence of any cash, any gifts anywhere. She said she had been expelled for sharing her Lok Sabha portal login. She said there are no rules governing the sharing of logins. She said tomorrow the CBI will be sent to her house and she is going to be harassed for the next six months.

Many Opposition parties have supported Moitra over the way she was expelled without getting a chance to put forth her stand.

BJP MP Giriraj Singh has stirred a controversy on Wednesday after he criticized West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee’s participation in the Kolkata International Film Festival where she was seen shaking a leg with Bollywood actor Salman Khan. In video circulating on social media Giriraj Singh was seen saying that Mamata Banerjee doing thumka at the film festival is not appropriate.

Giriraj Singh clarified later that he used the word jashn and not thumka and he was not wrong in criticizing Mamata Banerjee for celebrating film festival when West Bengal is riddled with corruption. Singh added the TMC leaders are exaggerating my words.

The TMC said this video evidence shows Singh not just uttering the word thumka twice but also making gestures that leave no room for misinterpretation. The party said Singh’s denial is another textbook example of BJP strategy to engage in shameful conduct  and then brazenly defend it.

The party added Union Minister Giriraj Singh bjp now joins the list of leaders who made degrading comments about Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee. The TMC said it is evident the BJP leaders find it incredibily hard to fathom a woman in power challenging their authority. The party said the BJP’s archaic mindset is steeped in gender biases is blatantly on display.

She said the misogyny and patriarchy that is practiced by the BJP every single day tell a different story altogether.
