After Manish Sisodia’s Arrest, BJP Hits Back On AAP Claims Of CBI Misuse

The BJP has denied Aam Aadmi Party’s claims that the Central Bureau of Investigation is being misused by the Centre, following the arrest of Delhi’s Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia. AAP has claimed that the arrest of Mr Sisodia this evening in connection with the now-withdrawn liquor policy, is political retaliation to its failure in getting Delhi’s mandate.

In an exclusive interview of NDTV, the BJP’s Manjinder Singh Sirsa said, “He may have done work on education. But that doesn’t mean he should indulge in corruption in liquor policy”.

The reference was to Mr Sisodia’s education and finance portfolios, two areas that AAP cites as reason for its huge popularity. AAP has won two  sweeping victories in Delhi in face of BJP challenge.
