Kejriwal twists reasons about CBI raid

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has sought to justify his flip flop on the CBI raids by firing away at Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley. The CBI raids on the Delhi Secretariat were actually to cover up Jaitley's alleged role in the Delhi Cricket Association scam, he claimed. Jaitley's denial in Parliament about the point of the raid was false, and he was, therefore, liable to contempt. While Jaitley rubbished the claim, Arvind alleged that the raids were actually to read the file notings against the former, and nothing to do with the erring official in his Secretariat (Rajendra Kumar). He said the CBI had no business to read papers that had nothing to do with the Secretariat official. In a complicated justification, Arvind claimed it was only because he had held the press conference of yesterday (where he had flayed Narendra Modi) that the file was not seized. If so, he could have said so that the raids were ostensibly to protect Jaitley instead of calling PM names yesterday. Also he was not sure whether the CBI officials had recorded the notings. Arvind further justified his actions saying the CBI raids were to take revenge on him!
