AAP accuses govt of witch hunt; seeks probe into fundings of all parties

The Arvind Kejriwal-led party said that it stands for honesty and clean politics and feels that probing into sources of political funding was better for political system in India.

“We feel that alongwith AAP, there should be a probe into funds of all political parties of the country and if corruption is found in any of them, then their leaders should be sent to jail,” it said.

The party, which has collected around Rs 19 crore till date as donations from 63,000 people including a host of NRIs, has been under attack from Congress and BJP over foreign funding.

“We have record of every rupee we have got and we are confident that we have not broken any law anywhere. As far as the question of foreign funding is concerned, all the funds that AAP has got from foreign are from people who hold Indian passport.

“By receiving funds from Indians, who are holding Indian passports, even if they are abroad, is not illegal under any law of the country,” the party said.
