The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has made a significant move by arresting six officials from the Delhi Transport Department on charges of corruption and bribery. This development follows the recent electoral defeat of the ruling Aam Aadmi Party in the capital.

Officials revealed on Wednesday that the CBI had been inundated with complaints regarding widespread corruption within the department. To ensure the credibility of these allegations, the agency decided to conduct thorough surveillance and verification before making any arrests.

The verification process revealed sufficient prima facie evidence of corruption at multiple levels, leading to the apprehension of the accused officials. This crackdown marks a pivotal attempt to address corruption in the capital's governance.
