The action was taken against Kumar after the recommendation of an inquiry committee, constituted by the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi. The committee was constituted after jailed conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar accused the jail Superintendent of extending undue favours and allowing VIP treatment to Satyendar Jain.
Earlier, the AAP party had dismissed the allegations of minister Jain getting VIP treatment in jail, calling them baseless.
In the video, Satyender Jain can be seen getting a foot, back, and a head massage in his cell at Tihar Jail.
In a press conference, BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia slammed AAP by saying that the corruption is rampant in the party. "You created the party to combat corruption, and end VVIP culture. But here, a corrupt person is getting all facilities," Bhatia said.
