Why does the AAP deputy CM needs more staff than PM?

Synopsis

Manish Sisodia allegedly has appointed 63 peons and officers on special duty in a span of one year. The basic pay of all these staffs are way more than the ones in Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Delhi Civil Service Officers.

The Aam Admi Party has always been in the news for all the wrong reasons in recent times. Now they are facing yet another controversial issue as the Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi, Manish Sisodia apparently has more number of staff than the PM Narendra Modi. The Anti-Corruption Branch (ACB) has already initiated a probe against Sisodia on the basis of a complaint lodged by a RTI activist.

 

Sisodia allegedly has appointed 63 peons and officers on special duty in a span of one year and that is way more than a Primer Minister’s personal staff (39).

 

ACB Chief Mukesh Kumar Meena has confirmed that they have started a probe against Sisodia on the basis of a complaint lodged by Vivek Garg. Apparently, Garg has even moved CBI to look into this issue as well.

 

Garg has managed to find out that the basic pay of all these staffs are way more than the ones in Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Delhi Civil Service Officers.

 

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is yet to comment on this issue.
