After the Chief Secretary of Delhi presented a report in July citing rule violations and "deliberate and serious procedural failures" with regard to the Excise Policy, Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena sought a CBI investigation.

"Seeing the public support and rising popularity of Arvind Kejriwal, the BJP and PM Modi are scared. They've unleashed agencies like CBI on our people and leaders. There is only one goal - finish Kejriwal," Mr Chadha said during the pressconfrence.

In addition to Manish Sisodia's residence at Delhi, the CBI conducted searches in a total of twenty sites spread across seven states.
