Will expose biggest 'DDCA corruption' on Sunday: BJP leader Kirti Azad

December 19, 2015 18:54

BJP lawmaker and former cricketer Kirti Azad today said he will "expose biggest Delhi and District Cricket Association "corruption" and "unmask the impostor" on Sunday at a press conference, rebuffing the party's attempts to dissuade him from going public with his allegations said to be targeting Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley.

The lawmaker from Bihar also appeared to be taking a dig at Mr Jaitley over his reported description of him as a "Trojan horse". "Not a Trojan horse but Achilles heel; wait till I unmask the 'behroopiya' (impostor)," Azad said in a tweet.

"Will expose biggest DDCA corruption with audio-visual tomorrow at 4 pm," he said in another tweet and quoted a poem of BJP stalwart Atal Bihari Vajpayee to suggest that he will carry on and not "concede" defeat.

BJP chief Amit Shah had called Azad on Friday to impress upon him that he should not go ahead with his charges at a time when opposition parties, especially the Aam Aadmi Party, have gone after Jaitley over the alleged corruption in DDCA when he headed the cricket body.
