New Delhi, Aug 20: Manish Sisodia, a member of the AAP, may be the primary suspect in the Excise Policy Scam, but Arvind Kejriwal, is the scheme’s mastermind, claimed Union Minister Anurag Thakur in retaliation on Saturday.
In a news conference earlier that day, Manish Sisodia refuted the accusations made against him and claimed that he was being singled out because of his position in Kejriwal’s cabinet.
“Today’s press conference clearly showed how the colour on his face was gone after his scam. He couldn’t even answer any questions.” Thakur also challenged Arvind Kejriwal to “come in front of the nation and answer me within 24 hours,” Anurag Thakur slammed Sisodia and said.
He took a dig at Delhi’s education minister Manish Sisodia, claiming that since the latter just generates money and remains silent, he may have altered the spelling of his name to “M O N E Y SHH.”

Anurag Thakur slammed Arvind Kejriwal earlier on Friday as well, claiming that the Delhi government gave free water, electricity, and rations to Rohingyas and gave them “revdis.”
