The Enforcement Directorate (ED) sent the seventh summons to Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal to appear before the investigating team on February 26 for recording his statement in connection with the Delhi excise policy case.
The agency has already approached a special court with a complaint against Mr. Kejriwal, as he did not comply with the previous summonses. The AAP alleged that the “illegal” summons was an act of revenge following the BJP’s defeat in Chandigarh mayoral election. The party said the Supreme Court saved democracy in Chandigarh, and as a result, the “BJP-led ED” has sent the summons again.
She said that BJP thinks that by these kinds of threats they can scare the AAP, then the saffron was committing a big mistake and the AAP is not scared of jail. “Even if you put every leader of AAP in jail, then AAP volunteers will emerge as new leaders and protect the country’s Constitution and democracy,” she said.
Mr. Sachdeva said that the AAP government in Delhi and his ministers have looted Delhi and the people of Delhi understand it. “Therefore, the residents of Delhi have decided to give all seven seats of Delhi to the BJP in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections and make Prime Minister Narendra Modi the Prime Minister for the third time,” he said.
He claimed that the AAP has already guessed that Mr. Kejriwal’s arrest is certain and that is why Ms. Atishi is trying to obtain false sympathy by questioning the strategy of investigative agencies in advance. “The Congress and the AAP are involved in this mess of determining how many seats each is losing in Delhi. Today, leaders and workers of both parties are not with each other, and both have lost public trust, so this coalition will not affect the people of Delhi,” he said.
