Delhi chief minister Sheila Dikshit today welcomed the granting of bail to Commonwealth Games scam accused Suresh Kalmadi, saying the court must have "good reasons" for pronouncing the order.

"Very good, I am glad that he got bail. The court must have good reasons for granting bail. It is good news," Dikshit told reporters. After spending nine months in jail, Kalmadi was today granted bail by the Delhi High Court in a 2010 Games-related graft case.

Soon after Kalmadi was granted bail, opposition BJP stepped up attack on Dikshit demanding action against her in the CWG-related cases, saying all those involved in these cases should be sent to jail.
