Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal Saturday alleged a “witch hunt” against him by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and Anti-Corruption Branch (ACB) at the behest of the Prime Minister and Lt-Governor of Delhi. Kejriwal tweeted that the investigative agencies are “randomly picking” files from the Delhi Jal Board (DJB), which he heads in his capacity as the water minister. The chief minister further said that he will be placing the files being allegedly sought by the agencies in the public domain.
“CBI and ACB started randomly picking files from DJB. No specific enquiry. Becoz now I am Min-in-charge, their effort is somehow frame me in something PM, LG n BJP — If u hv specific info, pl investigate.
