The Delhi government called a special session of the assembly on April 17

New Delhi (IANS) | A day after being summoned by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in the liquor policy scam, the Delhi government announced a special session of the assembly on April 17. According to sources, the assembly will discuss the fact that some forces are creating an atmosphere against the development work being done by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)-led Delhi government.

Sources said, in this special session, the report of a committee on the issues of MLA Rajesh Gupta and unanswered questions of Atishi and Services Department will be presented on the floor of the House.

Responding to the CBI summons, Kejriwal has claimed that the central probe agencies are going to extreme lengths to target his strongest political rivals.

Referring to the arrest of former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia, Kejriwal on Saturday said these agencies falsely claimed that 14 phones were destroyed, lied in courts in affidavits, tortured suspects to extract false confessions and threatened them. .

The chief minister said the agencies have not found even a single paisa of the illegally acquired property, which they claimed to have collected from the so-called liquor scam.
