In a new development in the Delhi excise policy case, K Kavitha, who is the daughter of Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, has been named in the alleged scam, with her name present on the court filing presented by the Enforcement Directorate (ED).

As the investigation continues into the now-scrapped Delhi liquor policy, which brought the Aam Aadmi Party government under scrutiny, K Kavitha has been named as one of the key persons involved in the money laundering probe attached to the case.

The investigation carried out so far by the ED revealed that K Kavitha was a member of the “South Gang” which was responsible for supplying as much as Rs 100 crores to the Aam Aadmi Party-led-Delhi government during the rollout of the liquor excise policy.

According to the remand report, businessman Vijay Nair, who has already been arrested in the case, received kickbacks of Rs 100 crore on behalf of AAP leaders from a group, called ‘South Group’.

The remand report says that the policy promoted cartel formations through the back door awarded exorbitant wholesale (12 percent) and huge retail (185 percent) profit margins and incentivized other illegal activities on account of the criminal conspiracy of leaders of AAP.

 

 

Now, K Kavitha has issued a statement on the allegations leveled against her, alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is using central agencies to attack opposition parties, saying that BJP is trying to topple the TRS government in Telangana.

Telangana CM KCR’s daughter said, “PM Modi can put us behind the bars, but we will still be working for the people & expose the failures of the BJP. TRS govt is running smoothly in Telangana. We have exposed their conspiracy to topple the state govt & Telangana's people have witnessed it.”

The TRS leader further added, “Same thing is happening in Telangana as we've elections next year ED has arrived before PM Modi in the state. We've welcomed them and will be cooperating with them. Still, BJP is playing cheap tricks”.
