SAD demands imm arrest of AAP mla Goldy Kamboj saying his father Surinder had taken the Rs 10 lakh bribe on his behalf.

(Maheshinder S Grewal asks CM why he has not taken action against tainted leaders like Vijay Singla and Fauja Singh Sarari)

Jalandhar,April 21 – The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) today demanded the immediate arrest of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) legislator Jagdeep Goldy Kamboj while asserting that the MLA’s father Surinder Kamboj was acting on the former’s behalf while demanding a bribe of Rs 10 lakh.

Stating that the arrest of Surinder Kamboj in the Rs 10 lakh bribe demand case was not enough, SAD senior leader Maheshinder Singh Grewal said “Goldy Kamboj cannot get away claiming that he is estranged from his father. If this was so Surinder Kamboj could not have presided over the Republic Day function at Fazilka this year”. Stating that there was more to meet the eye, Mr Maheshinder Grewal demanded the immediate arrest and interrogation of Goldy Kamboj to get to the bottom of the bribery case as well as expose the extortion racket being run by the father-son duo.

Asserting that chief minister Bhagwant Mann had a lot to answer, Mr Grewal said “the AAP government was supposed to usher in a corruption free reign in the State. They had promised to end corruption in four weeks. The opposite has happened. Corruption has increased tenfold with the common man also being affected”. He said the chief minister should tell Punjabis why action was not being taken against Goldy Kamboj as well as other tainted AAP leaders like Dr Vijay Singla and Fauja Singh Sarari who had been accused of corrupt activities. “The chief minister is yet to release the audio tape in which he claimed he had recorded Dr Vijay Singla’s confession nor taken action against Sarari who led an extortion racket as a minister. “Attempts were also made to save MLA Amit Rattan whose personal assistant accepted a bribe in his presence but the government had to take action against Rattan under public pressure”.

Meanwhile party general secretary Parambans Singh Romana said attempts were being made to save Surinder Kamboj in the bribery case by registering a cross complaint of rape against the complainant Sunil Kumar. He also gave details of the Kamboj family, stating the ‘Kattar Imaandaar Party’ had given the party ticket to Goldy Kamboj despite the fact that Goldy had been arrested for stealing cars and two wheelers and his father Surinder for running a prostitution racket in Chandigarh in 2007.

Both leaders also took on the AAP for giving the party ticket to a turncoat with a questionable reputation in Jalandhar city. Mr Grewal said AAP Convener had publicly stated that his party would not pick up garbage from other parties. “Now he must tell why he has done exactly this by giving the party ticket to a former Congressman”, he added.
