New Delhi, May 7 (IBNS): A day after he was removed as the as the tourism and water minister by the Delhi Government, Kapil Mishra on Sunday said he has revealed the identity of the "person" to the Lieutenant Governor, who he has seen "taking illegal cash."

After his meeting with Delhi Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal on Sunday morning, Mishra tweeted: "i have witnessed HIM taking illegal cash.. have shared all details with Lt. Gov.."

He is also scheduled to hold a press conference later.

Arvind Kejriwal led Delhi government on Saturday removed Kapil Mishra as the tourism and water minister.

Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia had 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 on Saturday and handed over documents related to the alleged tanker scam.

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

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

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

Reacting to his removal from the post, Mishra had 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."
