Hindustan Times Gurugram|December 26, 2024
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of "conspiring" to arrest Delhi chief minister Atishi "in the next few days in a false case related to transport department" and said it would be used as a cover for central agencies to raid senior AAP leaders.

NEW DELHI:

The BJP hit back, claiming that Kejriwal was making a prediction as "Atishi must be involved in some corruption".

Citing "reliable sources", Kejriwal said the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Enforcement Directorate (ED) and Income Tax (I-T) department were instructed to "fabricate" a case against Atishi.

There was no statement or response from the central agencies.

Addressing a press conference at the AAP headquarters, Kejriwal said: "As per our sources, there was a recent meeting among these agencies, and they have been asked to arrest CM Atishi by fabricating any false case. I am making this allegation with responsibility. Before this arrest, all senior leaders of AAP will be raided. Manish Sisodia, Saurabh Bhardwaj, Satyendar Jain, our houses will be raided to distract us from election campaign."
