BJP avoids commenting on CBI excluding Kalmadi's name in chargesheet

     The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday refused to comment on former Commonwealth Games (CWG) Organising Committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi's name not being included in the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) chargesheet in connection with alleged irregularities in the conduct of the Queen's Baton Relay event in London held in October 2009 ahead of the 2010 sporting extravaganza. BJP spokesperson Prakash Javadekar, however, said that his party would find out as to why Kalmadi's name was excluded by the apex investigating agency. "I would have to check the facts. Already, a chargesheet has been filed with Suresh Kalmadi's name included in it. Now, we will examine why his name has been excluded in this second chargesheet and then comment on it," he said. The CBI had earlier on Friday filed its chargesheet against three senior officials of the Organising Committee (OC), a London-based Indian businessman and two firms owned by him. The CBI chargesheet did not include Kalmadi's name. According to reports, the chargesheet named as accused OC officials TS Darbari, Sanjay Mohindroo and M Jeychandran, and London-based businessman Ashish Patel and his two firms - AM Car & Van Hire and AM Films - that had bagged two contracts for the Queen's Baton Relay event in an allegedly irregular manner.
