New Delhi: Delhi's Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government's Anti-Corruption Branch (ACB) on Monday (February 20) arrested Delhi Jal Board (DJB) joint director Naresh Singh in a case related to embezzlement of Rs 20 crore by the board. An FIR was registered in this matter in December. Earlier, employees of Fresh Pay and Aurum were arrested in the case of irregularities of 20 crores.

According to the report, while giving information, a senior ACB official said that Delhi Jal Board (DJB) joint director Naresh Singh has been arrested in the DJB e-kiosk water bill scam of 20 crores.
