New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday said his government did not do anything wrong in the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) scam and the CBI is free to conduct an inquiry against him.

“Kejriwal is not scared of CBI, order any inquiry against me,” the chief minister said in an interview with NDTV channel.

Kejriwal alleged the central government was conducting Central Bureau of Investigation raids at his office while turning a “blind eye” to the Vyapam scam of Madhya Pradesh.

Over the matter of alleged irregularities in the DDCA, he said: “Whenever anyone takes the name of DDCA and corruption, (Finance Miniser) Arun Jaitley says he is being defamed.”

“When we (Kejriwal along with Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia) met Prime Minister Narendra Modi, I told him I am like your child, please guide us, let us work without obstructions. He was silent,” he added.

Jaitley was president of the DDCA between 1999-2013.
