New Delhi, On Tuesday Aam Aadmi Party leader and Chandni Chowk MLA Alka Lamba has been removed from the post of party spokesperson for two months after she commented on the resignation of former transport minister Gopal Rai.

Acccording to the sources Lamba said, that "transport minister Gopal Rai had been relieved of the portfolio to make way for a fair probe into the Premium Bus Service scheme.”

She had made the comments outside the Anti-Corruption Branch’s (ACB’s) office, where she had gone to extend support to Rai.

But the Aam Aadmi Party has maintained that Rai stepped down due to health grounds. Last month, Rai had announced Premium Bus Service Scheme to encourage the car users to leave their vehicles and use public transport.

However, the scheme came under scanner of Delhi Government’s Anti-Corruption Branch (ACB) as Lt Governor Najeeb Jung had refused to give his go-ahead to the scheme.
