Preliminary Enquiry(PE) has no legal sanctity and it was "leaked" by CBI as BJP wants AAP to get sympathy and cut votes of Congress in Punjab elections, said Delhi Congress president Ajay Maken.
CBI yesterday registered the preliminary enquiry against Sisodia and others in connection with alleged irregularities in AAP government's social media campaign 'Talk to AK', eliciting scathing attack on Prime Minister by Sisodia and Arvind Kejriwal.
"BJP government and CBI has intentionally leaked the news of PE inquiry against Manish Sisodia. BJP and AAP are hand in gloves and they are deliberately doing this to divert attention from the utter failure of both BJP and AAP government in Delhi," he said.
Keeping the forthcoming elections in mind, specially Punjab and Goa, it is being "deliberately done" for making a futile attempt to generate sympathy for AAP, Maken alleged.
