New Delhi [India], August 5 (ANI): Launching a scathing attack on Delhi Lieutenant General VK Saxena over deaths in Asha Kiran Shelter Home, Health Minister and AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj said that the LG office is constantly lying and is trying to save the officers who committed corruption.
Speaking to ANI, Saurabh Bharadwaj said, “LG office is constantly lying, this is very unfortunate… This officer who was caught red-handed by CBI, was suspended for 5 years, why did the LG appoint him to the Social Welfare Department, why did he make him the administrator of Asha Kiran there? I am challenging him (LG) to show the file in which a minister had appointed him… The LG is trying to save the officers who committed corruption, why have the administrator, and secretary not been suspended till now? He should answer…”
This comes after Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena said that appointments, postings and transfers are decided by the National Capital Civil Service Authority, which is headed by the Chief Minister.
Earlier, in an official statement from the Raj Niwas said, “10 years of misgovernance masqueraded by advertisements and propaganda have begun to implode. Now that the system is crumbling, Press Conference Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj is frantically searching for alibis.”
“The AAP “health model” is there for all to see. The High Court taking suo moto cognizance of the pathetic state of affairs in GNCTD hospitals, personally summoned Bharadwaj. It appointed a committee under Dr SK Sareen to improve things, but its comprehensive report was neither deliberated upon by the PC Minister, who also happens to be the Health Minister. Fraud in Mohalla clinics, no new hospital in 10 years, tenders increasing from 400 Cr to 1100 Cr for construction of hospitals, medicine purchase scam ETC, lie exposed,” it added.
As per the official report, the highest number of deaths (14) have been recorded in the month of July at Asha Kiran Shelter Home.
