The allegations have been refuted by the Delhi CM who accused the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Centre of "manipulating investigative agencies for political motives".

In view of the Tuesday protest by the Aam Aadmi Party, the Delhi Police has beefed up security around the PM's residence and several other parts of the national capital.
