The Delhi High Court’s dismissal of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s petition against his arrest sparked a heated exchange between the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the BJP today.
While the AAP alleged a political conspiracy to destroy AAP governments in Delhi and Punjab, the opposition BJP said the ruling party “stands exposed” after the high court’s ruling and that Mr Kejriwal is the “kingpin”.
Shortly after the court’s ruling, Manoj Tiwari, BJP MP and the party’s prominent leader in Delhi, posted on X, “A criminal is a criminal. Everyone in the country has to follow India’s laws. The court’s verdict has shown the mirror to AAP’s gang leader. Evidence gathered by ED proves that Arvind Kejriwal is the kingpin. AAP stands exposed.”
BJP spokesperson Shazia Ilmi said the money trail has been established and that there is a lot of evidence against AAP leaders.
Hitting back, AAP leader and Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj said the ED and the CBI did not even find a rupee during their searches in connection with the Delhi liquor policy case. “Witnesses have been pressured to change their statements and say what ED wants them to,” he said.
