TIL Desk/National/New Delhi-Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s Principal Secretary Rajendra Kumar was among five persons arrested by CBI today in a graft case, sparking a vicious attack by a livid AAP on the Centre, accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of taking revenge for Delhi poll loss.
As the arrests over allegedly showing undue favours to a private company in award of government contracts worth over Rs 50 crore triggered a full-blown confrontation between the Centre and the AAP, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia said never has any central government “stooped to such low level”.
The Centre was also accused of “political vendetta” and “paralyzing” governance in Delhi. “Mr Modi, even if you only leave us with just peons, we will run the government with them,” Sisodia said.
