Excise policy case | Manish Sisodia counters CBI on look-out circular

Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia attacked the BJP-led Central government on Sunday saying that the CBI, which is investigating his alleged role in illegalities revolving around the now-scrapped revamped Excise Policy, had issued a Look-out Circular (LOC) against him.

CBI sources however, confirmed that no LOC has been issued followed by the Aam Aadmi Party alleging that the Prime Minister’s Office had “planted” such stories in the media and rescinded the notice after the “uproar of the public.”

This, even as the BJP termed Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal “the most corrupt” Chief Minister in the country, questioned why the Delhi government had rolled back the Excise Policy if there was nothing wrong with it and demanded that Health Minister Satyendra Jain and Mr. Sisodia be sacked from the Delhi Cabinet.
