“Ye kya nautanki hai, Modi ji”: Manish Sisodia reacts after CBI issues look out notice

New Delhi: Days after CBI conducted raids at his office and residence in connection with its probe into alleged irregularities in implementing the Delhi Excise Policy, Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Sunday said a look out notice has been issued by the agency against him.

"CBI found nothing during the raid. Now, you have used a look out notice that Sisodia is not available, despite that I am roaming freely in the national capital and available easily. Tell me where to come?" Sisodia said in a tweet in Hindi, terming the notice 'gimmick'.

In another tweet, Sisodia wrote, "Any false allegation made against us will not stand, every case against us will be dismissed. God is with us.. we will continue to work honestly, their every conspiracy will fail and truth will always win."

Meanwhile, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal tweeted, "At a time when the common man is battling with inflation, crores of youth are unemployed, the central government along with all the state governments should fight unemployment and inflation. Instead they are fighting with the whole country. Every morning they wake up and start the game of CBI and ED. How will such a country progress?”

On Saturday, Dy CM termed the Excise Police ‘best in the country’. He said the police had been implemented with full ‘transparency’ and ‘honestly’, but BJP unnecessarily made hue and cry over it.

“BJP has nothing to do with the new Excise Policy. The only problem it does have with Arvind Kejriwal’s growing popularity across the country. Therefore, their only motive is to stop Kejriwal by any means,” he had said.

"BJP has been claiming multi crore scam in implementing the new excise policy while CBI sleuths who came to my house for search informed me that it is the probe about just Rs one crore (as per their sources)," he had added. (UNI)
