· Impartial probe of VYAPAM scam not possible in Madhya Pradesh
· Viscera examination of journalist late Akshay Singh must be done outside MP
· SC monitored SIT is the only way to establish truth behind VYAPAM
· AAP appeals to the judiciary to play a pro-active role in probing the scam
Impartial probe into the Madhya Pradesh professional examination board (MPPEB) scam which is commonly known as the VYAPAM scam is not possible in that state.
A free and fair probe can only take place if the inquiry is shifted out of Madhya Pradesh. The Aam Aadmi Party demands that only way to establish the truth behind this scam which is fast turning out to be an unending chain of state sponsored murders cane be through a Supreme Court monitored Special Investigation Team.
The demand of the family of journalist late Akshay Singh that his viscera samples be examined outside Madhya Pradesh is perfectly justified and the state government should immediately accept this.
The AAP fully supports the demand of the family and various journalists’ organisations that the viscera examination of the young journalist who lost his life in highly mysterious circumstances while performing his duty, must be done outside Madhya Pradesh and preferably in Delhi.
No fair probe in this shocking scam which has claimed 45 lives so far since it came to light in 2013 will be possible if there is any role of the Madhya Pradesh government, state police and the central government in it.
Though the outrage in this scam has unfortunately come a bit too late, but even if at this belated stage the country’s higher judiciary plays a pro-active role, the truth may still come out and expose the real face of MP state government and those still shielding it.
The AAP is consulting legal experts to explore the possibilities of legal intervention in this scam, which no longer can be allowed to be left to be investigated by Madhya Pradesh state government controlled agencies.
The stand of the central government in the entire matter has not only been highly disappointing but it seems to be defending the MP state government for obvious political considerations. more
