Delhi dy CM Manish Sisodia on hospitals' controversy: Don't fear any investigation; allegations baseless

NEW DELHI: Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia said on Tuesday that he doesn't fear any investigations.

Sisodia was reacting over LG Vinai Kumar Saxena reportedly forwarding an "old" complaint by BJP leader Manoj Tiwari regarding hospitals for a probe by the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB).

"The allegations were baseless," said the Delhi deputy CM.

"I recently came to know that BJP leader Manoj Tiwari has conspired to stall the building of hospitals by levelling baseless graft allegations against Delhi govt. The newly appointed LG recently forwarded an old complaint by Tiwari for a probe to ACB," Sisodia said.

"We don't fear any investigation. We've faced several investigations when we were in power. However, pushing for such investigations against authorities to stall the work is a cheap move. Such bogus complaints are meant to sow fear in the minds of authorities and engineers," he said.
