BRS MLC Kavitha Summoned Again in Delhi Excise Policy Scam Investigation

BRS MLC Kavitha Summoned Again in Delhi Excise Policy Scam Investigation

Kalvakuntla Kavitha, a Member of the Legislative Council from Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), has once again been summoned by the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) in connection with the Delhi Excise policy scam case. The ED has requested Kavitha to appear before them on Tuesday. This is not the first time she is facing such scrutiny; the ED had previously issued a summons in September last year and another in March concerning the investigation into the Delhi liquor policy case.

Kavitha, who represents the Telangana Legislative Council, had been previously interrogated by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in December 2022 regarding the same case. In a related development, the ED issued a fresh summons to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on January 13, marking the fourth time in a money laundering probe related to irregularities in the Delhi excise policy for 2021-22. He is required to join the investigation on January 18. This comes after Kejriwal skipped the third summons last week, labeling them as “illegal and politically motivated.” The ED aims to record Kejriwal’s statement on matters such as the policy’s formulation, pre-finalization meetings, and allegations of bribery.

The case has seen notable developments, with the ED having filed five charge sheets so far, including charges against Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Manish Sisodia. As investigations progress, the spotlight intensifies on political figures and their roles in the alleged irregularities surrounding the Delhi excise policy.
