CBI Raids Delhi Health Minister’s House, AAP Alleges Conspiracy

Satyendra Jain had set up a creative team of 24 architects for the PWD through a detective agency last year.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Wednesday, 30 May, raided the residence of Delhi Health Minister Satyendra Jain in connection with the hiring of a creative team in the Public Works Department (PWD).

Jain had set up a creative team of 24 architects for the PWD through a detective agency last year, which had come under the CBI’s scanner, DNA reported.

The CBI also registered a case against Jain and SK Srivastava, the then engineer-in-chief of the PWD, among others, ANI reported.

"CBI raids my house for hiring creative team by PWD. Professionals were hired for different projects. All were forced to leave by the CBI," Jain tweeted on Wednesday morning.

The raid took place just a day after the CBI closed their probe into the appointment of Jain’s daughter as an adviser to the state government’s mohalla clinic project.

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, asking “what does the PM want?” after he was appraised of the raid.

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) workers alleged that the raid was a retaliation against the Delhi government's decision to put a cap on profits of private hospitals by announcing the new "Rate Capping Policy" for private hospitals.

Sequence of events:
1. CBI closes one case on @SatyendarJain yesterday
2. @SatyendarJain announces price capping and regulation of private hospitals
3. Immediately CBI raids the residence of @SatyendarJain today morning

Does this sequence of events say anything to you?!

सत्येंद्र जैन के घर सुबह सुबह सीबीआई की रेड चल रही है। आरोप है कि उन्होंने स्कूल, मोहल्ला क्लिनिक आदि के डिजाइन के लिए 'क्रिएटिव डिजायनर टीम' की सेवाएं लीं।
पूर्व एलजी नजीब जंग ने जाते जाते CBI को ये मामला सौंपा था। जंग की एक अन्य शिकायत को दो दिन पहले सीबीआई क्लोज़ कर चुकी है
