In yet another reshuffle in the Delhi government, Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia was given the additional charge of the law ministry, often mired in controversy.

Sisodia will replace Kapil Mishra, who was handling the ministry ever since Jitendra Tomar was arrested in a fake degree case in June. Mishra, however, will continue as minister for water and tourism and Delhi Jal Board vice chairman.
