Ration scam in Delhi - mere an allegation by opposition parties?

OP's Perspective

The Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) has put the Aam Admi Party (AAP) government in Delhi in the dock over irregularities in ration distribution in the national capital. 

The CAG audit report for 2016-17 flagged many "lapses" by the food and supplies department of the Delhi government, highlighting that eight vehicles which ferried 1,589.92 quintals of specified food articles to fair price shops had registration number of buses, scooters, motorcycles, and three-wheelers. This gives rise to doubt whether the reported transportation of SFAs (specified food articles) had actually taken place and the possibility of pilferage could not be ruled out.

Arvind Kejriwal has promised that action against the guilty in case of corruption or irregularity pointed out by the CAG proved to be true.

 

 

Let's discuss who is at fault.
