What is the whole matter?
Vartika Singh is a well-known international shooter. She hails from Pratapgarh in UP. She has accused Union Minister Smriti Irani of taking bribe. According to the news reports, Vartika says that 25 lakh rupees were being asked from her in exchange for her post in the Central Commission for Women. These money were demanded by Smriti Irani, her personal secretary Vijay Gupta and another colleague Rajneesh Singh.
Vartika alleged that on the instigation of Smriti Irani, her close friends had issued a fake letter of the Women’s Commission. She was misled by talking big to her. Then 25 lakh rupees were asked in exchange for giving special post. It was further alleged that Smriti’s close friends talked to her loosely on social media.
