Gas pricing issue: Arvind Kejriwal writes to Rahul Gandhi

Zee Media Bureau

New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) chief Arvind Kejriwal shot off a letter to Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi asking him to clear his stand on the gas pricing issue involving Reliance chairman Mukesh Ambani.

The letter, written by the former Delhi chief minister on Saturday, asks four questions from the Gandhi scion including on the nature of relationship between the Congress party and the Reliance chairman.

Kejriwal questioned Rahul over the gas pricing issue and asked him if he approves the government paying 8 dollars per unit to Ambani for procuring gas.
With barely few months left for the Lok Sabha polls, he also asked Rahul to reveal information regarding the source of funding to the party.

Raking up the issue of tainted ministers, Kejriwal asked another question on whether corrupt ministers will be given tickets by the party to contest the upcoming Lok Sabha polls.

The letter was written a day after Kejriwal shot off a letter to Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi asking him to break his silence on the gas pricing issue.

While addressing a press conference last week, Kejriwal had accused the Congress government of giving undue favours to Reliance Industries and increasing the price of the gas.
