The Congress on Sunday demanded a probe against Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal after sacked minister Kapil Mishra alleged the AAP convener was paid Rs 2 crore in cash by a colleague.

A day after being sacked as the Delhi Water Minister, the AAP legislator claimed that he saw Health Minister Satyendar Jain hand over Rs 2 crore in cash to Kejriwal at his residence.

"These are serious allegations against a Chief Minister. We will reach out to the people of Delhi on this issue. There must be a thorough probe into the matter," Congress leader Sharmistha Mukherjee said.
