Delhi: A day after a case was registered by Anti-Corruption Branch (ACB) in connection with the alleged 400-crore water tanker scam, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday and said that he was the only one standing like a rock against him.  

ACB chief MK Meena had said yesterday that two complaints were received with regard to the scam and those named in the complaints include former Delhi CM Shiela Dikshit and Kejriwal.

He had said that both Dikshit and Kejriwal will be quizzed.

Last week, the Delhi government had sent a report of a fact-finding committee on the scam to Lt Governor Najeeb Jung. Delhi BJP leader Vijender Gupta had also filed a complaint with Jung accusing Kejriwal of 'suppressing' the committee's report for 11 months, as per PTI.

The Lt Governor had forwarded the committee's report as well as Gupta's complaint to the ACB. Last week, Delhi's Water Minister Kapil Mishra had written to PM Modi and Jung recommending either CBI or ACB probe against Dikshit in connection with alleged scam.

With the latest controversy hitting the headlines, hashtag #ModiFearsKejriwal was trending on social media.
