Congress, AAP demand thorough investigation into VYAPAM Scam

Jul 5,  2:17 PM In Madhya Pradesh, death of journalist Akshay Singh has added a new controversy in Vyapam scam death row cases. Yesterday, the journalist died suddenly when he had gone to take an interview of a family of a slain professional examination board scam accused in Jhabua district. It is reported that Mr. Singh felt chest pain when he was taking interview. However, Police, in prima facie, claimed that there is nothing suspicious about Akshay's death. Our correspondent reports that the police is awaiting postmortem report. Meanwhile, the death of the journalist has prompted opposition parties to reiterate their demands of fair probe in the continuous deaths in the scam. Congress has stepped up its attack on Madhya Pradesh government and demanded an independent probe into the deaths. Talking to reporters in New Delhi today, party spokesperson R P N Singh questioned, if the chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chahuhan does not have anything to hide then why is he scared of a CBI probe into the scam. He also sought to know from the state government why persons related to the VYAPAM scam are being found dead one by one. Mr Singh also questioned, why Prime Minister Narendra Modi is not breaking his silence over the issue. Aam Aadmi Party today demanded thorough investigation into the VYAPAM Scam and all the deaths relating to the case. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said in a tweet that guilty must be punished and more deaths must be prevented. Party leader Manish Sisodia said there must be an independent probe into the journalist’s death by an SIT under Supreme Court’s monitoring. Our correspondent reports that over 30 people linked to the multi layered Professional Examination Board have died so far in different circumstances.
