AAP Minister Allegedly Caught On Sex Tape, Gets Sacked By Arvind Kejriwal

The Canadian Press, 31 Aug, 2016 10:18 AM
    Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday removed his Social Welfare Minister Sandeep Kumar, saying that he had received an "objectionable" CD on him and there cannot be any compromise with propriety in public life.
     
    The decision to sack the minister was taken at a high-level meeting attended by top AAP leaders. The CD allegedly carried details of some ‘wrongdoings’.
     
    In a statement to media, Arvind Kejriwal said that Minister of Child Welfare and Social Justice Sandeep Kumar has been removed from the cabinet.
     
    "Received "objectionable" CD of minister Sandeep Kumar. AAP stands for propriety in public life that can't be compromised. Removing him from Cabinet with immediate effect," Kejriwal tweeted.
     
    Sources said the CD contained some wrongdoings by Kumar and Kejriwal did not approve of it. Kumar represents Sultanpur Majra constituency. He is the second AAP minister to be sacked after Asim Ahmed Khan who was Minister for Food and Supplies.
