Explain Nexus with tax evading companies: BJP asks Kejriwal

New Delhi, Feb 4 (IANS) Questioning the credibility of companies and individuals donating money to the AAP, the BJP Wednesday asked Arvind Kejriwal to explain the "nexus" between him and tax evading companies.

Releasing the seventh set of questions as part of the BJP's plan to put five questions before the AAP leader everyday till Feb 5 ahead of Saturday polls, leader Nirmala Sitharaman asked why the party took donation from the directors of a company declared 'defaulter' by the Delhi government.

"Why did you take Rs.2 crore from the directors of SKN Associates Ltd. which was declared a defaulter company by Department of Trade and Taxes of Delhi government," asked the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader.

"What is the nexus between tax evading companies and Kejriwal and is this a case of quid pro quo for benefits extended to them during Kejriwal's tenure?"

Citing the Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) housing scheme, Sitharaman sought the merit behind shifting slum dwellers to a distant location thereby rendering them jobless?

In its third question to Kejriwal, Sitharaman asked why Kejriwal never talked of protecting the students and other migrants from north-east community and did not even bother to mention the issue in the party's manifesto for Delhi?

She then asked the AAP leader to explain his plan of adding 5000 new buses in the city without any plan to build new roads and also to solve the existing traffic congestion in the city.

In her last question, Sitharaman said that while BJP has planned to build three smart cities in Rohini Extension, Dwarka and Narela, why does Kejriwal not have any such plans for Delhi?
