The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) demanded that a probe be launched on the alleged ‘fake’ degrees acquired by Union HRD Minister Smriti Irani, even as it confirmed that an internal Lokpal would probe the issue of forged degrees of former law minister Jitender Singh Tomar. AAP leader Sanjay Singh said that AAP has its own internal mechanism to sort out these kinds of issues. Party Lokpal will investigate Tomar's case.
Singh said that apart from probing the issue of fake degrees of Smriti Irani, similar steps needed to be taken against Minister of State for HRD Ram Shankar Katheria. The AAP also claimed that 30 per cent of Narendra Modi's ministers had criminal charges against them. Speculative rumours are also afloat that Tomar may be removed from the AAP.
