CBI accessed documents not related with probe: Kejriwal

“Modi is a coward and psychopath”, he said, sparking an angry condemnation from a furious BJP which demanded an apology from the chief minister for his “disgraceful” remarks.

Rajendra, as a secretary of information and technology in the Delhi government, allowed a facility management system project worth Rs.45.5 lakh to Endeavour Systems in July 2013 without any government tender. “It is a black day for India’s democracy”, said AAP Spokesperson Raghav Chadha.

“File movement register of the chief minister’s office has been seized”. Some Delhi government officials had taken voluntary retirement scheme and floated a software company and Rajender Kumar was allegedly favouring them from many years in getting them contract. “Before appointing someone as principal secretary, he should have checked his background”, Hazare said.

CBI called Kejriwal’s comments “false propaganda”. This was definitely not the right time for the raid. Files of CM [chief minister] office are being looked into.

“I warn influenced CBI officers by the Central government led by BJP, who are misleading their duty and dragging innocent people with tag of false cases”, he alleged.

“If CBI had any evidence against Rajender, why didn’t they share it with me?”

Amid charges and counter-charges and claims and counter-claims, Kejriwal said his office was raided which was denied by CBI as well as Jaitley in Rajya Sabha where the opposition created an uproar. “Jaitley figures in it. They came looking for that file”, Kejriwal told reporters outside the residence of deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia. CBI also scrutinized files of DDCA.

Delhi’s chief minister accused India’s leader on Tuesday of waging a political vendetta against him after federal investigators raided his administration’s headquarters.

“I am ready to withdraw my words, if you are ready to apologise for your deeds”. Haven’t they realised that after their defeat in Delhi and Bihar. So, to find a colleague – rather than himself, as he insists by invoking a unusual version of the royal plural – being investigated for financial impropriety by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) can be overtly vexing for him.

The CBI said it had searched 14 places in Delhi connected with Kumar, including his residence, and various locations in Uttar Pradesh, and recovered Rs 16 lakh in cash, including Rs 2.4 lakh from Kumar’s residence alone. Kejriwal too is an elected CM with a massive majority. “We don’t interfere in its work”, he added.

Union Urban Development Minister Venkaiah Naidu said AAP should not be anxious and let the CBI do its duty.
