New Delhi, In a late-night alert, AAP ministers Atishi and Saurabh Bharadwaj raised concerns about an imminent raid by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) at Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s residence, hinting at a potential arrest. Kejriwal, who has skipped ED summons for the third time, justified his absence by citing commitments to the Rajya Sabha election and Republic Day duties. The BJP questions Kejriwal’s actions, urging him to address the legal summons directly.
Security around Kejriwal’s residence tightened on Thursday morning in response to the anticipated ED raid. Despite facing criticism, Kejriwal continues to defend his non-compliance, stating in his latest reply that he is occupied with Delhi’s administrative duties and preparations for Republic Day events.
The second phase of the “Main Bhi Kejriwal” campaign kicks off, engaging with the public to gather feedback on whether Kejriwal should resign if arrested or continue governing from jail. The BJP’s stance remains critical, questioning Kejriwal’s reluctance to face the legal process and suggesting he should take lessons in corruption.
