ED sends 7th summons to Kejriwal in excise case

ED Bharatiya Janata Party Arvind Kejriwal New Delhi Atishi Singh Virendra Sachdeva CBI

The Enforcement Directorate (ED) sent the seventh summons to Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal to appear before the investigating team on February 26 for recording his statement in connection with the Delhi excise policy case.

The AAP alleged that the “illegal” summons was an act of revenge following the BJP’s defeat in Chandigarh mayoral election. The party said the Supreme Court saved democracy in Chandigarh, and as a result, the “BJP-led ED” has sent the summons again.

Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva said Mr. Kejriwal’s role in alleged scam is “crucial”.
