ED summons K Kavitha, the leader of BRS, for questioning in relation to the Delhi Excise Policy Case

K Kavitha, a BRS politician and the daughter of Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, was called into the Enforcement Directorate’s Delhi office on Friday for interrogation about the excise policy case in the nation’s capital, according to authorities.

In March, Kavitha was interrogated repeatedly at the ED headquarters and was required to turn in her cell phones to the government organization.

The national capital’s governing Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has firmly denied the allegations that the Delhi government’s excise policy for 2021–22, which grants licenses to liquor merchants, permitted cartelization and favored particular dealers who had paid bribes for it.

After the policy was later abandoned and the lieutenant governor of Delhi had suggested a CBI investigation, the ED filed a complaint under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).

There was a political agreement between K. Kavitha and the chief minister (Arvind Kejriwal) and deputy chief minister (Manish Sisodia), according to Butchibabu, an accountant who was reportedly connected to Kavitha, during the course of the ED’s investigation. On March 19–20, 2021, K Kavitha met Vijay Nair throughout that procedure.

As the BJP-led Centre was unable to get a “backdoor entry” into Telangana, Kavitha claimed that she had done nothing illegal and charged them with “using” the ED.
