In response to the development, Sisodia said in a tweet that the CBI wants to stop the ongoing development in Delhi.

"CBI has called me again on Sunday. They have put full force of CBI and ED against me. They raided my home, searched my bank locker but didn't find anything. I have made arrangements of best education system in Delhi, they want to stop it. But I have always supported in their investigation and will do," he added.

 

Earlier on Wednesday, the Bureau had interrogated Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain at Tihar Jail about Vijay Nair and other related things.
