The Ministry of Home Affairs has given sanction to prosecute Delhi's Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia under the Prevention of Corruption Act in the alleged 'Feedback Unit' (FBU) snooping case, news agency ANI reported.

Following the MHA's sanction to the CBI, Sisodia said the more AAP will grow, the more cases will be filed against its leaders.

"Filing cases against one's rivals is a sign of a weak and coward person. The more AAP will grow, the more cases will be filed against us," Sisodia said in a tweet in Hindi.
