Before Granting Fitness Certificates

While the CNG inquiry commission was set up for a period of three months, with a budget of about 20 lakh, a highly-placed source said it had failed to complete the probe in the scheduled time frame as it had reportedly exhausted all the funds. Of20 lakh allocation for the commission, about 4.5 lakh were paid every month to Justice S.N. Aggarwal (Retd).

Now, the AAP administration has reportedly extended the time frame of the commission by six months.Earlier, the commission had hogged the headlines for issuing a non-bailable warrant against Delhi anti-corruption branch chief Mukesh Kumar Meena for not sharing China Home freezer Manufacturers information with it related to the100-crore fitness scam. The commission had also ordered to attach 30 per cent salary of the ACB head.The CNG fitness scam was unearthed by RTI activist Vivek Garg who had alleged that the contract for conducting lane test of commercial vehicles before granting fitness certificates was granted to ESP India without inviting any tender in 2002. Mr Garg had sought registration of FIR against the then chief minister Sheila Dikshit, former transport minister Arvinder Singh Lovely, ex-transport commissioner R.K. Verma and ESP India.
