Kejriwal Aide’s Arrest Not Politically Motivated: Sheila Dikshit

Dikshit also took the opportunity to claim that the proceedings in the water tanker case are politically motivated.

Senior Congress leader Sheila Dikshit on Tuesday defended CBI arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s Principal Secretary, Rajendra Kumar even as she questioned the “timing” of the “politically motivated” charges against her pertaining to the alleged multi-crore water tanker scam.

When asked about the allegations that the BJP-ruled Centre was taking political revenge for its electoral setback in Delhi by resorting to arrests, including that of Kumar, the former Delhi Chief Minister denied the assertion with a vehement “no.”
