The Lokayukta’s indictment on one more minister in the Mayawati cabinet is showing how corrupt is her ministry, felt Congress. Already a dozen of her ministers are under UP Lokayukta scanner.
This time it is Naseemuddin Siddiqui, one of the most powerful ministers in the Mayawati led BSP government. Congress said that already a number of ministers and legislators in Mayawati government have been indicted by Lokayukta for corruption charges, misuse of official position and grabbing of lands. Chief Minister Mayawati has already dropped over a dozen indicted ministers and legislators. But new cases keep coming confirming that Mayawati government is neck deep in corruption, argued the Congress. In the present case it is alleged that at the time of filing nomination for election as MLC earlier this year, the minister’s wife had deliberately omitted to mention several properties in the affidavit filed along with the nomination. This points to possession of disproportionate assets by the Minister’s family, said Congress (I).
