₹95 Lakh Curtains, ₹28 Lakh TV: BJP’s Parvesh Varma Uses ‘Rahman Dakait’ Analogy From ‘Dhurandhar’ as He Walks Through Kejriwal’s ‘Sheesh Mahal’
Delhi minister alleges audit findings show excessive luxury spending and procedural lapses in former CM Kejriwal’s bungalow, with monthly electricity bills reaching Rs 5 lakh.
- On Thursday, Delhi Cabinet Minister Parvesh Sahib Singh Verma shared a video walkthrough of the 'Sheesh Mahal,' alleging excessive spending on luxury fittings inside the former chief minister's residence.
- Citing Public Works Department audit findings on Wednesday, Verma contrasted the residence's renovations with former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's earlier assurances that he would not accept an official bungalow.
- In the video, Verma points to expensive installations, claiming curtains cost Rs 95 lakh, chandeliers Rs 88 lakh, and a television Rs 28 lakh, while the kitchen involved Rs 1.5 crore in spending.
- Verma also noted procedural issues, including unauthorized tree cutting and structural demolition, while the Aam Aadmi Party has not yet responded to these specific claims.
- The minister further alleges that the structure was expanded and would have cost an additional Rs 60 crore, contrasting this spending with the city's COVID challenges.
