The Delhi liquor scam is a high-profile case involving allegations of corruption and money laundering in the implementation of the Delhi government’s excise policy. Recently, K Kavitha, a leader of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) and daughter of Telangana’s Chief Minister, was arrested in connection with the case. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has alleged that she is part of a group accused of paying kickbacks to Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders.
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has also been linked to the case, with allegations suggesting a political understanding between K Kavitha and top AAP leaders for illicit advantages under the now-defunct excise policy. The policy, introduced in 2021, aimed to overhaul the liquor trade in the national capital by allowing private entities to operate liquor outlets and reducing the legal drinking age from 25 to 21 years. However, it was later scrapped amid allegations of favoritism and corruption.
K Kavitha’s arrest and the allegations against AAP leaders have sparked significant controversy and are part of ongoing investigations by the ED
