Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday slammed the government over the selection of Jio Institute for the 'Institution of Eminence' status, saying it "is in Ambani's pocket".

"Earlier, the Congress government was in Ambani's pocket, now the Modi government is in Ambani's pocket. Has anything changed?" Kejriwal tweeted in response to former BJP leader Yashwant Sinha's tweet on the issue. Sinha in a tweet had said, "Jio Institute has not even been set up. It is not in existence. Yet government grants it eminence tag. That is the importance of being M Ambani."
