The Congress party, which accused the Delhi government of orchestrating the liquor policy scam until last year, has now thrown its weight behind AAP and Arvind Kejriwal ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Describing the arrest of Kejriwal as an assault on democracy, Atishi said that the BJP is aware that Kejriwal is the most popular leader who has the potential to challenge PM Modi in the ensuing Lok Sabha polls.
Hours after the Delhi High Court refused interim protection to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal from coercive action in connection with the excise policy case, an Enforcement Directorate team reached his residence for questioning.
The Police officials stated that the brothers borrowed a huge amount of money and were not able to repay the lenders following which they hatched a plan to cheat government employees.
K Kavitha had links with several persons arrested in the case, including P. Sarath Chandra Reddy of Aurobindo Pharma and Gurugram-based businessman Amit Arora.
