Delhi BJP hails graft probe into Arvind Kejriwal’s ‘Sheesh Mahal’ Newly-elected legislator from Rohini, Vijender Gupta, said the truth about his corruption will now come before the public. The probe order was issued by the CVC on February 13, following a report submitted by the CPWD regarding the controversial renovation and expansion of Kejriwal’s official bungalow. The colonial mansion and its lawns now cover an area of 40,000 square yards (8 acres) in the posh Civil Lines area of Delhi. The Chief Vigilance Commissioner (CVC) had directed the Central Public Works Department (CPWD) to conduct a detailed investigation into allegations that construction norms were violated while renovating and expanding the mansion at 6, Flagstaff Road, Civil Lines. In the run-up to the February 5 Delhi Assembly elections, Gupta had written to Lieutenant Governor V.K. Saxena, urging him to annul the merger of four government-owned properties with 6,Flagstaff Road.
