NEW DELHI: The tabling of 14 Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG) reports in the first Delhi Assembly session since the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won the state polls is set to take centre stage again with the ruling party alleging the reports since 2017 will expose the Aam Aadmy Party's (AAP's) "corrupt practices", and the AAP refuting alleging that the CAG "was working as a unit of the BJP".

Addressing a press conference on the agenda for the assembly session from Monday, Delhi chief minister Rekha Gupta said: "We will focus on pending works and discussions about development projects. One of the most important things would be the tabling of pending CAG reports and the previous government must now answer the people of Delhi for the misuse of their hard-earned money. They will have to provide an account of every single rupee."

Pro tem speaker and BJP MLA Arvinder Singh Lovely said: "The CAG reports haven't been tabled and the AAP has already starting saying that it is an attempt to spread misinformation. Why are they so scared? When reports are tabled, they will realise what is reality."
