The Congress and Aam Admi Party, both part of INDIA bloc, on Friday strongly condemned the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal by Enforcement Directorate in an excise policy case.
AAP State spokesperson and in-charge of Vizianagaram district K.Dayanand alleged that NDA government was harassing Mr.Kejriwal as he turned AAP into a national party within 12 years. “AAP’s strong presence in New Delhi, Punjab and other States and its alliance with Congress Party was the root cause for the harassment. The Election Commission of India should take initiative to control misuse of ED since his arrest was politically motivated after the release of election schedule,” he added.
Srikakulam District Congress Committee President Pedada Parameswara Rao said that Narendra Modi government targeted both AAP and Congress Party which would ensure defeat for BJP in ensuing elections.
