Delhi's Tihar jail is like a city but it does not work in a vaccum, Sanjay Beniwal, the jail's Director General, said today in the backdrop of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's allegation that he is not being administered insulin. His party has alleged a conspiracy to murder him. Speaking to NDTV in an exclusive interview, Mr Beniwal said Tihar has around 1,000 diabetics and they are given food and medication according to the advice of senior doctors, including those from AIIMS and Ram Manohar Lohia hospital.


"We usually face such pressure, we have a habit of tolerating it, it is part of life," he told NDTV. 


Mr Kejriwal has gone to court alleging that he is being deprived of insulin since his arrest on March 21 in connection with the Delhi liquor policy case. His request for a video call with a private practitioner has been denied by the special court in Delhi that is hearing the case.
