A day after his arrest, AAP leader Jitender Singh Tomar was taken to Faizabad in Uttar Pradesh by Delhi Police for questioning.
The former law minister who was taken to Lucknow by train around midnight (en route to Faizabad), however, continued to maintain that the allegations were false.
My degree is absolutely genuine. It is a conspiracy by BJP and the central government. Yes, they are not letting AAP government work.
– Jitender Singh Tomar, Former Law Minister of Delhi
Tomar, who quit as Delhi law minister after his arrest yesterday, claims to have done his BSc from RML Avadh University, Faizabad and his LLB from Tilka Manjhi University, Bhagalpur – both of which degrees are in question.
Police have taken him to Faizabad for an on-the-spot verification and questioning.
