Scheme a 'Bribe to Voters': Kejriwal

Ghaziabad Land acquisition and corruption will be among a string of issues to be highlighted by Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), which described the UPA government's decision to launch direct cash transfer scheme as a "bribe to voters". After a two-day meeting of AAP's national executive that took several decisions about future plans, Kejriwal said the expose on corruption will continue even as it will target price rise and power issue in the national capital. Commenting on the cash transfer scheme, he said the scheme may end up stopping "some leakages", but on several counts it is not desirable. "The timing is questionable. This is a way of giving bribe to voters," he told reporters when asked about the Centre's new scheme.
