Government trying to weaken the constitutional institution to cover up scams
New Delhi: BJP Delhi Pradesh President Vijender Gupta has expressed apprehensions that by failing to take action on the recommendations of Shunglu Committee formed by the Prime Minister to enquire into the bungling in Commonwealth Games, present Central Government is trying to weaken the CAG, CVC, DDA etc. institutions. Government wants that no constitutional institution may conduct impartial enquiry into the bungling and the Government may continue to commit scam.
Giving the example of the inability of the Prime Minister’s office to provide full information
on this subject under rules & laws which was sought by the news agency PTI under RTI, Shri
Gupta told that the Prime Minister had given assurance in the Parliament two & half years ago
for impartial enquiry only to pacify the great hue & cry in the country against bungling in CWG.
Shunglu Committee was formed under this assurance.
After enquiry into the CWG bungling of 70,000 crore rupees, the former CAG, V.K. Shunglu had recommended that there should be drastic changes in the structure and working style of Accounts department of Delhi Government, Vigilance Commission and the DDA so that the persons committing bungling may be held responsible. In the mean time it has been learnt that the Government is trying to make the CAG a multi
member body and limiting the powers of CVC Commissioner so that the corruption, scam, anti
people schemes may not be exposed. The Antony Committee is following the same and trying to
delay its report.
