Information and Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur on August 19 dubbed Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia as an “excuse minister” after the latter claimed he was “paying the price for honesty” as the CBI searched his premises in connection with the excise scam.
Mr. Sisodia, who also holds the Excise portfolio in the Delhi government, said the Agency probe against him was to derail his work to improve education facilities in the national capital.
