CBI Alleges AAP's Cash Use for Goa Polls

Two former Goa MLAs claim they were paid in cash by Aam Aadmi Party volunteers for campaign expenses during the 2022 state Assembly polls. The CBI's chargesheet in the Delhi excise policy case reveals that a substantial amount of ill-gotten money was allegedly used for election expenditures, involving key AAP leaders.

Two ex-Goa MLAs who ran in the 2022 state Assembly elections on AAP tickets have accused a party volunteer of giving them cash for campaign expenses, per the CBI's chargesheet in the Delhi excise policy case.

The agency claims that out of Rs 90-100 crore in corrupt funds provided by the 'South Group' to influence the excise policy, Rs 44.5 crore was sent to Goa for electoral expenses.

In its fifth supplementary chargesheet, the CBI implicates Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and Delhi MLA Durgesh Pathak, AAP's Goa polling in-charge, in the misuse of these illicit funds for election-related spending.
