The anti-corruption bureau of Delhi today filed a fresh FIR in the CWG scam relating to the purchase of street lamps. However, despite the Delhi government seeking action against her, former chief minister of the national capital Sheila Dikshit was not named in it.

On Thursday, the Arvind Kejriwal government had reportedly asked the anti-corruption bureau to file an FIR against Dikshit for her alleged role in a scam related to the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi.

This particular case refers to Dikshit's alleged involvement in the purchase of imported street lights at an inflated price.

In a note, the Delhi government had told the anti-corruption bureau that she had taken 'unusual interest' in the purchase of the lamps.

The note also said that the meeting where the lamp models were decided were held at the CM's house and the bidding process was restricted to only three companies, reported CNN-IBN.

The anti-corruption bureau had been asked to probe her involvement, after the scam came to light in investigations carried out by the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG), and the Shunglu Committee, which was constituted to investigate the event.

Dikshit had trashed the findings and had sent a point-by-point rebuttal to the Centre.

"We will ensure thorough investigation of all cases of corruption in CWG projects," Law Minister Somnath Bharti told PTI when asked about the government decision.

He said ACB has been told to examine all cases of irregularities but maintained that the probe will not target "any particular individual".
