The accused made scurrilous, misplaced and false allegations against the Complainant with an intention to teach people of Delhi a lesson for voting in favour of the Aam Aadmi Party, the plea alleged.The effort of the Delhi Government as well as that of the complainant was to bring transparency and accountability to the process of procurement and maintenance of buses for trouble-free performance and availability of a sufficient number of buses at any given point in time. The DTC had made attempts to maintain the buses at their own Depots through their trained staff but this led to frequent breakdowns and non-availability of buses at any given point of time besides being too expensive to maintain, stated plea.Along with a Criminal complaint, Kailash Gehlot had also filed a civil defamation suit in the Delhi high court against BJP MLA Vijender Gupta, seeking Rs 5 crores in damages and sought removal of social media posts by Vijender Gupta alleging irregularities in the procurement of public buses.The Delhi High Court on Friday also kept the order reserved in Gahlot's civil defamation plea against Vijender Gupta for making corruption allegations.The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has recently requested the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) to conduct a preliminary inquiry by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into the alleged irregularities in the purchase of 1,000 low-floor buses by the Delhi government.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
