I am not afraid of CBI: Arvind Kejriwal tells Modi
"Modiji, I am not afraid of CBI. I will keep fighting for the country," Kejriwal told media.
The Delhi CM said he was the target of the raid.
"CBI has raided my office and many other places since morning..If Rajender Kumar gave wrong tenders during his tenure VAT commissioner then that file will be with VAT department," Kejriwal said.
In case he did wrong as an education secretary then the CBI should have searched the education department," he said.
"Why didn't the CBI raid offices of ministers in Sheila Dikshit government?" Kejriwal questioned.
"Kejriwal was the target of the raid conducted by the CBI," the CM said.
Kejriwal earlier in the day tweeted that his office was raided by the CBI and launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi by calling him a "coward and psychopath".
According to reports,the CBI raided Arvind Kejriwal’s Principal Secretary Rajender Kumar office over alleged graft charges.
"Which file was CBI looking for in my office? DDCA files in which Arun Jaitley is in dock. I was about to order a commission of enquiry," he said.
The CBI denied that its officials searched the Delhi Chief Minister's office on Tuesday.
Devpreet Singh, CBI spokesperson, told media: "The CBI is emphatically denying having searched the Delhi CM’s office."
"False propaganda must not be used to impede our investigation," she said.
