Termed The Commission Of Inquiry Constituted

The AAP government’s move to order a commission of inquiry headed by senior lawyer Gopal Subramaniam to look into alleged financial irregularities in the Delhi District Cricket Association during Union finance minister Arun Jaitley’s 14-year tenure as its chief has raised questions over the outcome of a similar probe which chief minister Arvind Kejriwal had ordered on August 17 to investigate the CNG fitness scam. The CNG fitness inquiry commission has reportedly been given a six-month extension as it had failed to finalise a report within first three months of its Wholesale Push-ups deadline.

The Kejriwal government had ordered the CNG fitness scam probe under the chairmanship of retired high court judge S.N. Aggarwal. The government’s move had led to a major confrontation with the Union home ministry declaring that the CNG commission of inquiry was “legally invalid and void.”The CNG inquiry commission had even forced the L-G’s office to issue a statement stating that the “home ministry has conveyed that the Government of NCT of Delhi is not the competent authority to set up a commission of inquiry to probe into the alleged scam. The home ministry termed the commission of inquiry constituted by the GNCTD as legally invalid and void ab initio.”

The AAP had hit back by accusing lieutenant-governor Najeeb Jung of trying to shield the officers found guilty by a CBI probe into the scam which was detected by the Delhi government’s anti-corruption branch in 2012.“The inquiry commission will look into all investigations and developments that have taken place so far in this case, including wrongful denials of sanctions to prosecute guilty officials and dereliction of duty in taking action against those involved in the scam,” Delhi home minister Satyendar Jain had said after the appointment of the commission.
