Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal Saturday made it clear that officials wedded to honesty had nothing to worry from his new government.

Kejriwal told the media that a series of meetings he held with senior officials Saturday were introductory in nature.

"I told the officers that there will be no witch hunting," Kejriwal said, after learning that there was a sense of unease in the bureaucracy in view of his image as an uncompromising anti-corruption crusader.

"'Work with honesty, and you will have nothing to worry' is what I told them," he said.
