The first fish caught by the Kejriwal anti-corruption brigade in Delhi was a cooperative official, making the people wonder at the pervasive moral turpitude in the sector.
Within two days of being set up, Kejriwal’s anti-corruption helpline resulted in the arrest of an official on Friday. The anti-corruption branch arrested Banwari Lal, an employee at the office of the Registrar, Cooperative Societies, for demanding Rs 4,000 to remove the complainant’s name from a defaulter list.
“In the last 36 hours, we have received over 23,000 calls,” CM Arvind Kejriwal said, announcing the four-digit easy-to-remember helpline number .
The anti-corruption helpline of the Delhi government has received more than 23,000 calls with the anti-corruption branch making one arrest on Friday from the office of Registrar, Cooperative Societies, claimed chief minister Arvind Kejriwal.
The government also launched the four-digit, easy to-remember helpline—1031—along with the existing number—27357169. Both will be operational.
Complainant Mahinder Pal Singh, who helped the anti-corruption branch in laying trap, leading to the arrest of Banwari Lal, an employee at the Registrar, Cooperative Societies, was lauded by Kejriwal for his initiative. “The accused demanded Rs 4,000 for removing my name from the list of defaulters in an old loan case,” said Singh.
