New Delhi: Global Anti-Corruption watchdog Transparency International has said that they had written to the Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal about the alleged wrongdoings of his principal secretary Rajendra Kumar.
The revelations came in the wake of claims made by Delhi CM that had he been he would have acted himself against Rajendra Kumar.
“In May, we received info from a whistleblower,we thought its better to write to Delhi CM. We wrote to the CM on May 27, we didn't get any reply as yet,” said Ashutosh Mishra, Executive Director, Transparency International India.
“The letter said, Rajendra Kumar was appointed in different organisations within a particular time period and in all these organisations a particular company was favoured and particular contract was given to them without following proper procedure,” he added.
The letter had also requested the Delhi chief minister to intervene personally in the matter. "Since this is a serious issue, your personal intervention will be much appreciated,"
On Tuesday, the CBI raided at the third floor office of Kumar in the Delhi secretariat. The issue kicked up a political storm between the Delhi govt and the Centre with its echo also being heard in the Parliament.
