The Delhi Cabinet today approved the setting up of a one-member commission of inquiry under former Solicitor General Gopal Subramanium to probe alleged irregularities in capital's cricket body DDCA.


The Cabinet also decided to call a special session of Delhi Assembly tomorrow to discuss alleged irregularities in Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) and the last week's CBI raid at the Delhi Secretariat.


The decisions were taken at a Cabinet meeting presided by Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.The decision to form the commission of inquiry came amid AAP's fierce attack on Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley over alleged irregularities in DDCA during his 13-year tenure its chief. Jaitley has strongly rubbished the allegations. "We will present a resolution in the House to approve setting up of the Commission of Inquiry," said Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia. Following a CBI raid in Delhi Secretariat in connection with charges against Kejriwal's Principal Secretary Rajendra Kumar, AAP has been claiming that the central agency carried out the searches to target the AAP chief and was looking for a file relating to alleged graft in DDCA. Since then, the party has been demanding resignation of Jaitley from the Union Cabinet.
