Sources said the CBI is continuing its investigation into Manish Sisodia.

The CBI searched the office of Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia today in connection with the Centre’s corruption charges in the Delhi liquor policy, which the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) administration has strenuously denied.

The CBI searched Manish Sisodia’s residence in Delhi and 20 other locations in seven states. Then Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena issued the obligatory penalties for filing a corruption complaint.

According to sources, agency authorities confiscated classified official paperwork relevant to the new excise policy from a public servant’s house. The location of the seizure is still unknown. No monetary recovery has been made so far. The hunt is expected to continue.

The investigation agency has filed an FIR and is looking into the Delhi Excise Policy, which was implemented in November and gave private players liquor outlet licenses.

Manish Sisodia, who runs the Excise Department, stated that the policy was implemented to combat corruption in government liquor stores. Mr. Sisodia tweeted this morning:

“CBI has arrived at my house. I will cooperate with the investigation agency; they will uncover no evidence against me. “

 

Mr. Sisodia stated that the Centre was concerned about the “great work done by the Delhi government in the health and education sectors,” which is why ministers from both departments were targeted. Satyendar Jain, Delhi’s Health Minister, has been imprisoned since May.

Arvind Kejriwal, the Chief Minister of Delhi and the leader of the AAP, later attended a press conference, saying that no raids would deter his party from doing good for the country’s people.

“Many difficulties will be thrown in our way during our endeavor. There have been raids in the past, but nothing was found, and nothing will be found this time. We will work closely with the CBI, “He stated.
