Amid searches conducted by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's residence in connection with the Delhi excise policy case, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) asserted that Kejriwal's ideas cannot be arrested, even if he is detained. AAP Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj expressed confidence that Kejriwal's principles resonate with people across the nation, suggesting that a new Kejriwal is emerging in every neighborhood.
Speaking to the media during Kejriwal's questioning, Bharadwaj highlighted the inability of the party to establish communication with the Chief Minister, implying that the ED might have seized his phones. He speculated on the possibility of Kejriwal's arrest and criticized what he perceived as the BJP's unjust actions.
Bharadwaj questioned the necessity of the ED's operation and raised concerns about the large police presence, suggesting a political conspiracy to arrest Kejriwal. Similarly, AAP Minister Atishi labeled the situation as a political plot, questioning the need for extensive security measures during a search operation.
AAP MP Raghav Chadha echoed these sentiments, alleging a significant conspiracy to arrest Kejriwal just before the Lok Sabha elections. Chadha emphasized Kejriwal's widespread popularity and the positive impact of his governance in Delhi and Punjab. He asserted that while Kejriwal might be detained, his ideology will endure.
