The CBI, for the first time, named Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia as an accused in the liquor scam charge sheet filed in Delhi’s Rouse Avenue Court on Tuesday, April 25. This is considered a big blow for the Aam Aadmi Party. Arvind Kejriwal had been saying till now that the investigating agency has not found any evidence against Sisodia and the action being taken against him is the result of a political conspiracy. But after the inclusion of Sisodia’s name in the charge sheet, his difficulties may increase. At the same time, the BJP has alleged that Sisodia is the mastermind of the liquor scam. The party has demanded from AAP that now they should expel Sisodia from the party.
In the liquor scam, an illegal transaction of Rs 100 crore was done through the alleged South Group. According to sources, the names of some Aam Aadmi Party leaders have come to the fore in this illegal transaction. Questions have also been raised regarding the way in which the commission of the traders was increased in a surprising manner while making the liquor policy. The money trail has emerged as the strongest evidence in this case.
meaning of name in charge sheet
Senior Supreme Court advocate Ashwani Kumar Dubey told Amar Ujala that while registering a case, certain allegations are made against the accused in connection with the crime. When the investigating agency finds sufficient evidence related to the said crime then it includes the name of the accused in its charge sheet presented before the court. It means that the investigating agency believes that it has sufficient evidence to prove the charges leveled against the accused. He has to prove these allegations in the court.

Will the noose tighten on Arvind Kejriwal as well?
The BJP has been alleging that Arvind Kejriwal is the real mastermind of the case. Other leaders of Aam Aadmi Party used to work only to follow his orders.

Since, CBI has already interrogated Arvind Kejriwal for about ten hours, discussions have started regarding this.
BJP made this allegation
Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva said that Arvind Kejriwal has been saying that the CBI has not found any evidence against Manish Sisodia. But now the CBI has included his name in its charge sheet on the basis of evidence. This proves that Manish Sisodia had a role in the liquor scam. He said that now after Sisodia’s name appears in the charge sheet, Kejriwal should be expelled from the party showing political honesty.
Virendra Sachdeva said that Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and all Aam Aadmi Party leaders are answerable to the public after Manish Sisodia’s name appeared in the charge sheet of the liquor scam today. They should now tell the people of Delhi whether they still consider Manish Sisodia innocent? He said that whether Aam Aadmi Party leader Manish Sisodia is guilty or not, the people of Delhi consider Sisodia to be the mastermind of the liquor scam.
