As AAP leaders and workers staged a protest in various states a day after the arrest of Manish Sisodia in the excise policy scam case, Mr Rai alleged that the CBI action was a conspiracy to trap the Delhi deputy chief minister.
"It was the LG (Anil Baijal) who had put the final stamp on the excise policy papers. So why is he not being questioned? If agencies are transparent, they should have questioned the LG too. It is clear that a conspiracy has been hatched to trap Manish Sisodia," Mr Rai said.
He also claimed that despite searching all locations, the CBI could find nothing against Mr Sisodia.
