The ED and the CBI registered cases in relation to the alleged scam after Delhi Lieutenant Governor (LG) VK Saxena recommended a CBI probe based on a report by the Delhi Chief Secretary. The report claimed that Sisodia violated statutory provisions and notified a policy that had significant financial implications.
Although Sisodia was not named in the CBI’s chargesheet, the probe remained open against him and some others.
AAP has denied the allegations and maintained that Sisodia is innocent.
It is Sisodia’s stance that the policy and the changes made in it were approved by the LG and that CBI is now going after the policy decisions of an elected government.
