During a press conference after the questioning, Kejriwal accused the Centre of being too powerful and capable of imprisoning anyone without any basis.
Before heading to the CBI office, Kejriwal informed the media that he would provide truthful answers to all questions.
“I will give all answers with honesty because I did not do anything wrong,” he said. “They threaten everyone to follow their orders otherwise put in jail,” alleged Kejriwal.
“Now do whatever you want. You can’t stop now. Now India will remain the number one country in the world,” said the Delhi CM.
