DELHI, AUG 4 – The Central Bureau of Investigation found no evidence of corruption after a nearly four-year probe into alleged irregular hiring during Satyendar Jain's tenure as Delhi PWD minister.
- A Delhi court formally closed a corruption case on August 4, 2025, against AAP leader and former PWD minister Satyendar Jain in New Delhi.
- The case stemmed from a May 2019 FIR filed after a Directorate of Vigilance complaint alleging irregular hiring of 17 consultants without proper approvals.
- The CBI conducted an investigation for nearly four years and found no proof of illegal activities, misuse of authority, or misconduct in the hiring process, which was confirmed as justified.
- Special Judge Dig Vinay Singh noted that there is no evidence indicating any criminal intent or conspiracy, emphasizing that the case lacks more than mere suspicion to support such allegations.
- The court's closure allows Jain to move forward without charges, but the CBI may reopen the case if new evidence emerges, marking a significant relief for him and the AAP.
