New Delhi, May 6 (IBNS): Arvind Kejriwal led Delhi government on Saturday removed Kapil Mishra as the tourism and water minister.

Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia told media that: "Kapil Mishra worked hard but water management was not up to the mark. There were complaints about water not reaching people."

Kailash Gahlot, who represents the Najafgarh Assembly constituency, will take over Mishra's portfolio now.

Mishra said he had met Kejriwal earlier in the day and handed over documents related to the alleged tanker scam.

He also took it to Twitter and posted: "Massive expose on tanker scam tomorrow."

"Today shared explosive details with @ArvindKejriwal . tomorrow with public," he wrote.

"I am the only minister with no corruption charges. No CBI enquiry against me," he tweeted.

Reacting to his removal from the post, he told media: "I was not informed of the decision and as per my knowledge, it was taken unilaterally by Kejriwal. The Cabinet or the Political Affairs Committee (the AAP's top decision- making body) was not involved."
