Delhi’s excise policy that led to Manish Sisodia’s arrest

New Delhi:Why did the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrest Delhi’s Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia? After all, what is this ‘liquor scam’ that has created a political storm in the country’s capital and finally led to his resignation.

Sisodia has been accused of committing irregularities in the old liquor policy for political gains of his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). He has been accused of providing undue favors to liquor licensees in return for “kickbacks” and “commission” , which was reportedly used by AAP in the Punjab Assembly elections in February 2022.

The story begins from July 2022, when Delhi Chief Secretary Naresh Kumar submitted a report to Lieutenant Governor Vinay Kumar Saxena about these charges against Sisodia.

Earlier, the Economic Offences Wing of the Delhi Police, which reports to the BJP-ruled Centre also took note of the ‘reforms’ in the policy. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) also launched a separate probe into the Delhi liquor scam.

According to the report submitted to the #LG and the #chiefminister, Sisodia allegedly made changes in the excise policy without the approval of the LG, such as allowing exemption of Rs 144.36 crore on tender license fee. The report said, “The Excise Department, under the direct orders of Sisodia, decided to give a waiver of Rs 144.36 crore to the liquor cartel alone on the tender license fee, on the pretext of the Covid pandemic.”

Officials said if any changes are made to a policy that has already been implemented, the excise department will have to place them before the cabinet and send them to the lieutenant governor for final approval. Any change made without the approval of the cabinet and the L-G is illegal, and in violation of the Delhi Excise Rules, 2010 and the Trade Rules, 1993.

The report also alleged that Sisodia extended undue favor to liquor licensees by revising the rates of foreign liquor and doing away with the import pass fee of Rs 50 per case of beer. As per reports, this made foreign liquor and beer cheaper for retail, leading to loss of revenue to the exchequer.

But before we go any further let us first know what was the excise policy.

The proposal of this policy came in 2020 and it came into force in November 2021. Delhi was divided into 32 zones, with each zone having 27 liquor vends. Under this policy, the government will have nothing to do with the sale of liquor, only private liquor shops will run in the city, and there will be 2-3 contracts in each municipal ward. Its objective was to eliminate liquor mafia and black marketing, increase revenue and improve consumer experience and ensure equitable distribution of liquor shops.

The government also made rules flexible for licensees, such as allowing them to offer discounts and set their own prices instead of selling at the government-fixed MRP. After this, the shopkeepers offered discounts, due to which the crowd gathered. Following protests from the opposition, the Excise Department withdrew the exemption for some time.

The CBI has named 15 persons in its #FIR filed in connection with the Delhi Excise Policy 2021-2022, in which Sisodia is on top. Citing allegations in a memorandum issued by the L-G, the FIR states that Sisodia, Delhi’s then Excise Commissioner Arva Gopi Krishna, and two other senior Excise Department officials had “played a key role in making recommendations and decisions relating to the policy.

There is another allegation against Sisodia. The CBI is probing the deputy #CM in a case related to alleged setting up of a ‘feedback unit’ to collect political intelligence against AAP’s political opponents. On 22 February, the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) sanctioned prosecution of him under the Prevention of Corruption Act in connection with the case.

The political war between the #AAP and the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has escalated after Sisodia’s arrest. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said, “He is innocent…this is dirty politics”. . He tweeted and said, ‘There is a lot of anger among the people due to the arrest of Manish. Everyone is watching. The public is understanding everything. People will respond to it.”

Sisodia was arrested on Sunday after nearly eight hours of questioning. He was questioned about various aspects of the excise policy, his alleged links with Dinesh Arora and other accused named in the FIR, and details of exchange of messages from several phones.

CBI officials said the arrests were made after the deputy CM did not cooperate with the probe and avoided the clarifications sought by him.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) #mla Saurabh Bhardwaj said, ‘#CBI is completely at the behest of the Centre. We always knew that Manish Sisodia would be arrested.

Meanwhile, in a set back to #Sisodia, the Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to entertain his plea by challenging his arrest. The court told him to approach a lower court or High Court. – INDIA NEWS STREAM

पहले सत्‍येंद्र जैन, अब मनीष सिसोदिया... 6 मंत्रियों में से दो गिरफ्तार, कैसे चलेगी दिल्ली सरकार?

नई दिल्ली, (वेब वार्ता)। उप-मुख्यमंत्री मनीष सिसोदिया की गिरफ्तारी के बाद दिल्ली सरकार के लिए भी मुश्किलें और बढ़ती दिखाई दे रही हैं। कुल 7 सदस्यों वाली दिल्ली कैबिनेट में मुख्यमंत्री अरविंद केजरीवाल के अलावा 6 अन्य मंत्री हैं। सीएम के पास कोई मंत्रालय है नहीं। बाकी के 6 मंत्रियों में से एक सत्येंद्र जैन पहले से ही तिहाड़ जेल में हैं। ईडी ने उन्हें मनी लॉन्ड्रिंग के केस में गिरफ्तार कर रखा है। अब मनीष सिसोदिया के भी गिरफ्तार हो जाने से सरकार की दिक्कतें और बढ़ने की आशंका है। मुख्यमंत्री अरविंद केजरीवाल ने गिरफ्तारी के बाद भी सत्येंद्र जैन को अभी तक उनके पद से नहीं हटाया है। वह सरकार में बिना विभाग के मंत्री बने हुए हैं। जैन के जेल जाने के बाद उनके ज्यादातर मंत्रालय मनीष सिसोदिया को सौंपे गए थे। उसी के चलते सिसोदिया के पास इस वक्त 18 मंत्रालयों का जिम्मा था। इनमें फाइनैंस, पीडब्लूडी, पावर, वॉटर, हेल्थ, एजुकेशन, होम, विजिलेंस, प्लानिंग, सर्विसेज, टूरिज्म, अर्बन डिवेलपमेंट जैसे सरकार के ज्यादातर प्रमुख विभाग शामिल हैं। सिसोदिया के गिरफ्तार होने के बाद अब ये विभाग कौन संभालेगा, यही सबसे बड़ा सवाल है। दिल्‍ली का बजट कौन पेश करेगा? दिल्ली सरकार का बजट कौन पेश करेगा, इस पर भी अब सरकार को जल्द से जल्द फैसला लेना पड़ेगा, क्योंकि अगर बजट तय समय पर पेश नहीं हुआ, तो सरकार के सामने नई मुश्किलें खड़ी हो सकती हैं। वित्त मंत्री के रूप में बजट बनाने में अपनी व्यस्तता का हवाला देकर ही सिसोदिया ने पिछले हफ्ते सीबीआई से पूछताछ में शामिल होने के लिए कुछ दिन की मोहलत मांगी थी। उसी के बाद सीबीआई ने उन्हें एक हफ्ते का वक्त देकर रविवार को पूछताछ के लिए बुलाया था। आबकारी मामले में क्या हैं सीबीआई के आरोप? 4 मंत्रियों के जिम्‍मे पूरी सरकार दिल्ली सरकार में अब केवल 4 मंत्री ऐसे रह गए हैं, जिनके पास अन्य विभागों का जिम्मा है। इनमें सबसे अधिक 6 विभाग मंत्री कैलाश गहलोत के पास हैं। वह ट्रांसपोर्ट, रेवेन्यू, महिला एवं बाल विकास, सूचना एवं प्रौद्योगिकी जैसे मंत्रालयों का जिम्मा संभाले हुए हैं। वहीं मंत्री गोपाल राय के पास पर्यावरण, सामान्य प्रशासन और डिवेलपमेंट के रूप में केवल तीन विभागों का जिम्मा है। चूंकि वह आम आदमी पार्टी के दिल्ली प्रदेश के संयोजक भी हैं, इसलिए उन्हें प्रशासनिक कामों में ज्यादा व्यस्त नहीं रखा गया है। अन्य मंत्रियो में इमरान हुसैन के पास दो और राजकुमार आनंद के पास चार मंत्रालयों का जिम्मा है। ऐसे में सरकार चलाने के लिए अब सीएम अरविंद केजरीवाल को जल्द से जल्द या तो अपनी कैबिनेट में फेरबदल करना पड़ सकता है या फिर मौजूदा 4 मंत्रियों को कुछ अन्य विभागों का जिम्मा सौंपना पड़ सकता है। हो सकता है कि कुछ मंत्रालयों का जिम्मा अब खुद उनको ही संभालना पड़े। Read the full article

Delhi High Court denies bail to Manish Sisodia in Delhi excise policy scam

The high court, while pronouncing its verdict on the bail plea, said Sisodia is an influential man and the possibility that witnesses could be influenced if he is released on bail cannot be ruled out.

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court on Tuesday dismissed the bail plea of former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia in the excise policy scam being probed by the CBI.

Justice Dinesh Kumar Sharma denied the relief to the AAP leader, who was arrested on February 26, saying the allegations against him are very serious in nature.

The high court, while pronouncing its verdict on the bail plea, said Sisodia is an influential man and the possibility that witnesses could be influenced if he is released on bail cannot be ruled out.

The CBI had arrested Sisodia for alleged corruption in the formulation and implementation of the now-scrapped Delhi Excise Policy 2021–22 following several rounds of questioning.

He has challenged the March 31 order of a trial court that had dismissed Sisodia’s bail plea in the matter, saying he was “prima facie the architect” of the “scam” and had played the “most important and vital role” in the criminal conspiracy related to alleged payment of advance kickbacks of Rs 90–100 crore meant for him and his colleagues in the Delhi government.

He is also in custody in a related money laundering case.
