Speaker Goel termed Gupta's table-climbing act as 'unprecedented' and a 'shame'.

In the same session, Kejriwal also demanded that the Delhi government be given control over the anti-corruption branch to ensure a fair probe into an alleged water tanker scam during Sheila Dikshit's tenure, after BJP raked up the issue in the Assembly.

In his response, Kejriwal lashed out at Gupta and said his government was not in a position to investigate the issue, which was mentioned in a fact-finding report submitted by Delhi Water Minister Kapil Mishra, as the Centre had taken over the ACB using 'paramilitary forces'.
