Upon his arrival at the CBI headquarters at around 10:30 am, the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader was escorted to the investigation team after the completion of the necessary formalities.
Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav appeared before the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in Delhi today to be interrogated in connection with the alleged land-for-jobs scam, after skipping three previous dates, officials said.
Upon his arrival at the CBI headquarters at around 10:30 am, the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader was escorted to the investigation team after the completion of the necessary formalities.
The CBI had given an assurance to the Delhi High Court last week that it would not arrest Mr Yadav this month.
According to the RJD leader's counsel, Maninder Singh, Mr Yadav had conveyed to the federal agency that he would require some time to appear before its sleuths as the ongoing Bihar Assembly session is scheduled to conclude on April 5.
