Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Monday said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should "no more remain silent" over the Vyapam scam.

"People want prime minister to speak and intervene in Vyapam. PM should no more remain silent," he said in a tweet.

Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party had described the scam as a 'black hole' yesterday, saying that it had claimed many lives. The party had sough the resignations of Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister, Shivraj Singh Chouhan, and Governor Ram Naresh Yadav, even as it insisted on a Supreme Court-monitored SIT probe into the scandal.
