Delhi Health Minister Satyendra Jain has broken his silence on the ongoing brouhaha of bribery allegations levelled against him and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal by sacked Aam Aadmi Party minister Kapil Mishra.
Jain's response comes after Mishra levelled fresh allegations at a press conference on Monday saying that the health minister helped Kejriwal's relative settle a seven-acre farmhouse deal in Chattarpur located on the outskirts of Delhi. Mishra added that Jain told him in private conversations that he had settled a Rs 50 crore deal for the Delhi CM's relatives to get the farmhouse in Chattarpur.
"There is a limit to lying. I wasn't present at CM's residence on May 5 and I can prove it in many ways," Jain told ANI.

Mishra had made shocking allegations against Kejriwal on Sunday (May 7) accusing him of taking Rs. 2 crore from Jain. He also alleged that Jain has settled land deals worth Rs. 50 crore for "Arvind Kejriwal's relatives."
When he asked the Delhi CM about the money he took from Jain, Kejriwal said a lot of things "happen" in politics that "cannot be explained," he further alleged.
Mishra also tweeted a while ago saying:
