Panaji : The AAP on Monday said it may approach the Supreme Court over elected representatives lying on affidavits, and demanded the arrest of Goa PWD Minister Sudin Dhavalikar for submitting a false graduation degree to the election authorities.
Addressing a press conference at the Aam Aadmi Party headquarters in Panaji, Dinesh Waghela, member of the AAP national executive and chairman of the party’s disciplinary cell, accused the ruling BJP of ‘double standards’ while dealing with legislators accused of possessing fake degrees in Delhi and Goa.
Asked if the issue of falsification on election affidavits needed to be extensively probed throughout India, he said: “Our party is planning to approach the Supreme Court in this matter. It is still not decided, but we are working on the possibility whether the Supreme Court can intervene in this.”
