Meanwhile, the CBI told the judge that it was ready to debate in the corruption case related to the alleged excise policy scam. Now the CBI is investigating the corruption case related to the canceled Delhi Excise Policy 2021-22, while ED is investigating a money laundering case. The money laundering case arises from the CBI FIR, which was registered by Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena after recommending an inquiry into the alleged irregularities in the implementation of the policy.
According to the CBI and ED, irregularities were made while amending the excise policy and the license holders were given unfair advantage. The Delhi government implemented the policy on 17 November 2021 and ended it by the end of September 2022 amid allegations of corruption.
