&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Four days after The Indian Express reported how, in at least 12 instances, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi raised inflated air fare invoices to overcharge her host NGOs and institutions, Bedi announced today that the &amp;ldquo;balance amounts&amp;rdquo; were being returned &amp;ldquo;forthwith&amp;rdquo;.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Foundation trustees have passed resolution directing me (to) travel strictly as per invite. This leaves no room for discretion...Trustees have instructed travel agent to return the balance amounts forthwith,&amp;rdquo; she tweeted.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
This was a clear climbdown from her earlier refrain. To those who questioned her bills, her stock tweet was: &amp;ldquo;You are committing a sin.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
But in Mumbai today to receive an award, Bedi ducked all questions saying, &amp;ldquo;A rose comes with the thorns.&amp;rdquo; She didn&amp;rsquo;t specify how many inflated invoices in all she was referring to, what the total balance amounted to, or the time frame in which this payment would be made.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
These issues assume significance given that The Indian Express has tracked &amp;mdash; with records of bills and invoices &amp;mdash; at least 18 more examples in which false invoices were raised to overcharge organisations for her travel. In most of the cases, she claimed Business while paying for discounted Economy. In some cases, she charged inflated Economy tickets too:
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
With award Discount...
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On these flights, Kiran Bedi used the

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
75 per cent discount she is entitled to as a gallantry award winner
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Four days after The Indian Express reported how, in at least 12 instances, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi raised inflated air fare invoices to overcharge her host NGOs and institutions, Bedi announced today that the &amp;ldquo;balance amounts&amp;rdquo; were being returned &amp;ldquo;forthwith&amp;rdquo;.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Foundation trustees have passed resolution directing me (to) travel strictly as per invite. This leaves no room for discretion...Trustees have instructed travel agent to return the balance amounts forthwith,&amp;rdquo; she tweeted.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
This was a clear climbdown from her earlier refrain. To those who questioned her bills, her stock tweet was: &amp;ldquo;You are committing a sin.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
But in Mumbai today to receive an award, Bedi ducked all questions saying, &amp;ldquo;A rose comes with the thorns.&amp;rdquo; She didn&amp;rsquo;t specify how many inflated invoices in all she was referring to, what the total balance amounted to, or the time frame in which this payment would be made.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
These issues assume significance given that The Indian Express has tracked &amp;mdash; with records of bills and invoices &amp;mdash; at least 18 more examples in which false invoices were raised to overcharge organisations for her travel. In most of the cases, she claimed Business while paying for discounted Economy. In some cases, she charged inflated Economy tickets too:
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
With award Discount...
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On these flights, Kiran Bedi used the

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
75 per cent discount she is entitled to as a gallantry award winner

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Four days after The Indian Express reported how, in at least 12 instances, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi raised inflated air fare invoices to overcharge her host NGOs and institutions, Bedi announced today that the &amp;ldquo;balance amounts&amp;rdquo; were being returned &amp;ldquo;forthwith&amp;rdquo;.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Foundation trustees have passed resolution directing me (to) travel strictly as per invite. This leaves no room for discretion...Trustees have instructed travel agent to return the balance amounts forthwith,&amp;rdquo; she tweeted.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
This was a clear climbdown from her earlier refrain. To those who questioned her bills, her stock tweet was: &amp;ldquo;You are committing a sin.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
But in Mumbai today to receive an award, Bedi ducked all questions saying, &amp;ldquo;A rose comes with the thorns.&amp;rdquo; She didn&amp;rsquo;t specify how many inflated invoices in all she was referring to, what the total balance amounted to, or the time frame in which this payment would be made.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
These issues assume significance given that The Indian Express has tracked &amp;mdash; with records of bills and invoices &amp;mdash; at least 18 more examples in which false invoices were raised to overcharge organisations for her travel. In most of the cases, she claimed Business while paying for discounted Economy. In some cases, she charged inflated Economy tickets too:
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
With award Discount...
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On these flights, Kiran Bedi used the

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
75 per cent discount she is entitled to as a gallantry award winner
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Four days after The Indian Express reported how, in at least 12 instances, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi raised inflated air fare invoices to overcharge her host NGOs and institutions, Bedi announced today that the &amp;ldquo;balance amounts&amp;rdquo; were being returned &amp;ldquo;forthwith&amp;rdquo;.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Foundation trustees have passed resolution directing me (to) travel strictly as per invite. This leaves no room for discretion...Trustees have instructed travel agent to return the balance amounts forthwith,&amp;rdquo; she tweeted.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
This was a clear climbdown from her earlier refrain. To those who questioned her bills, her stock tweet was: &amp;ldquo;You are committing a sin.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
But in Mumbai today to receive an award, Bedi ducked all questions saying, &amp;ldquo;A rose comes with the thorns.&amp;rdquo; She didn&amp;rsquo;t specify how many inflated invoices in all she was referring to, what the total balance amounted to, or the time frame in which this payment would be made.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
These issues assume significance given that The Indian Express has tracked &amp;mdash; with records of bills and invoices &amp;mdash; at least 18 more examples in which false invoices were raised to overcharge organisations for her travel. In most of the cases, she claimed Business while paying for discounted Economy. In some cases, she charged inflated Economy tickets too:
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
With award Discount...
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On these flights, Kiran Bedi used the

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
75 per cent discount she is entitled to as a gallantry award winner

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Four days after The Indian Express reported how, in at least 12 instances, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi raised inflated air fare invoices to overcharge her host NGOs and institutions, Bedi announced today that the &amp;ldquo;balance amounts&amp;rdquo; were being returned &amp;ldquo;forthwith&amp;rdquo;.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Foundation trustees have passed resolution directing me (to) travel strictly as per invite. This leaves no room for discretion...Trustees have instructed travel agent to return the balance amounts forthwith,&amp;rdquo; she tweeted.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
This was a clear climbdown from her earlier refrain. To those who questioned her bills, her stock tweet was: &amp;ldquo;You are committing a sin.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
But in Mumbai today to receive an award, Bedi ducked all questions saying, &amp;ldquo;A rose comes with the thorns.&amp;rdquo; She didn&amp;rsquo;t specify how many inflated invoices in all she was referring to, what the total balance amounted to, or the time frame in which this payment would be made.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
These issues assume significance given that The Indian Express has tracked &amp;mdash; with records of bills and invoices &amp;mdash; at least 18 more examples in which false invoices were raised to overcharge organisations for her travel. In most of the cases, she claimed Business while paying for discounted Economy. In some cases, she charged inflated Economy tickets too:
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
With award Discount...
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On these flights, Kiran Bedi used the

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
75 per cent discount she is entitled to as a gallantry award winner
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Four days after The Indian Express reported how, in at least 12 instances, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi raised inflated air fare invoices to overcharge her host NGOs and institutions, Bedi announced today that the &amp;ldquo;balance amounts&amp;rdquo; were being returned &amp;ldquo;forthwith&amp;rdquo;.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&amp;ldquo;Foundation trustees have passed resolution directing me (to) travel strictly as per invite. This leaves no room for discretion...Trustees have instructed travel agent to return the balance amounts forthwith,&amp;rdquo; she tweeted.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
This was a clear climbdown from her earlier refrain. To those who questioned her bills, her stock tweet was: &amp;ldquo;You are committing a sin.&amp;rdquo;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
But in Mumbai today to receive an award, Bedi ducked all questions saying, &amp;ldquo;A rose comes with the thorns.&amp;rdquo; She didn&amp;rsquo;t specify how many inflated invoices in all she was referring to, what the total balance amounted to, or the time frame in which this payment would be made.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
These issues assume significance given that The Indian Express has tracked &amp;mdash; with records of bills and invoices &amp;mdash; at least 18 more examples in which false invoices were raised to overcharge organisations for her travel. In most of the cases, she claimed Business while paying for discounted Economy. In some cases, she charged inflated Economy tickets too:
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
With award Discount...
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
On these flights, Kiran Bedi used the

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
75 per cent discount she is entitled to as a gallantry award winner

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
Four days after The Indian Express reported how, in at least 12 instances, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi raised inflated air fare invoices to overcharge her host NGOs and institutions, Bedi announced today that the &ldquo;balance amounts&rdquo; were being returned &ldquo;forthwith&rdquo;.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
&ldquo;Foundation trustees have passed resolution directing me (to) travel strictly as per invite. This leaves no room for discretion...Trustees have instructed travel agent to return the balance amounts forthwith,&rdquo; she tweeted.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
This was a clear climbdown from her earlier refrain. To those who questioned her bills, her stock tweet was: &ldquo;You are committing a sin.&rdquo;
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
But in Mumbai today to receive an award, Bedi ducked all questions saying, &ldquo;A rose comes with the thorns.&rdquo; She didn&rsquo;t specify how many inflated invoices in all she was referring to, what the total balance amounted to, or the time frame in which this payment would be made.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">
These issues assume significance given that The Indian Express has tracked &mdash; with records of bills and invoices &mdash; at least 18 more examples in which false invoices were raised to overcharge organisations for her travel. In most of the cases, she claimed Business while paying for discounted Economy. In some cases, she charged inflated Economy tickets too:

<div style="text-align: justify">
With award Discount...
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify">

On these flights, Kiran Bedi used the

75 per cent discount she is entitled to as a gallantry award winner

Bedi says will pay ‘balance’, here are 18 more fake bills by Ajmer Singh

Four days after The Indian Express reported how, in at least 12 instances, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi raised inflated air fare invoices to overcharge her host NGOs and institutions, Bedi announced today that the “balance amounts” were being returned “forthwith”. “Foundation trustees have passed resolution directing me (to) travel strictly as per invite. This leaves no room for discretion...Trustees have instructed travel agent to return the balance amounts forthwith,” she tweeted. This was a clear climbdown from her earlier refrain. To those who questioned her bills, her stock tweet was: “You are committing a sin.” But in Mumbai today to receive an award, Bedi ducked all questions saying, “A rose comes with the thorns.” She didn’t specify how many inflated invoices in all she was referring to, what the total balance amounted to, or the time frame in which this payment would be made. These issues assume significance given that The Indian Express has tracked — with records of bills and invoices — at least 18 more examples in which false invoices were raised to overcharge organisations for her travel. In most of the cases, she claimed Business while paying for discounted Economy. In some cases, she charged inflated Economy tickets too: With award Discount...
