Liquor Scam Case Updates: AAP leaders Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia on Monday campaigned for Aam Aadmi Party in Gujarat. Sisodia said that if AAP comes to power in Gujarat, then the education system of the state will be reformed like it was done in Delhi.
Kejriwal said that Manish Sisodia should get a Bharat Ratna for his exemplary work. “We are guaranteeing that we’ll provide free and best health treatment to all Gujaratis. Like Mohalla clinics, health clinics will be opened in cities and villages. We’ll improve government hospitals and new government hospitals will be opened if needed,” Kejriwal said.
The CBI last Friday conducted searches at Sisodia’s house and booked him in connection with the alleged irregularities in the Delhi excise policy. The FIR named Sisodia accused number 1, while 14 others have also been named.
