Attacking the BJP for filing “false” cases against AAP members, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday said that despite filing 167 cases against its leaders, no investigating agency has been able to prove if any AAP members are doing wrong.
Kejriwal said, “ They have filed 167 cases against AAP leaders in the last seven years, and not a single one has been proved in court. AAP leaders have been cleared in more than 150 cases and the rest are pending… 800 investigation agency officers are dedicated only to find wrongdoing by AAP leaders but they have found nothing. Agencies are being dragged to court as they have filed false cases.”
Kejriwal asked about Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s demand to run a completely clean government and said, “Give me control of CBI, ED (Enforcement Directorate) for one day, half of the BJP will be in jail.”
Delhi Minister Satyendra Jain has been in jail for the past six months on charges of money laundering filed by the ED. Manish Sisodia has been accused in a CBI FIR in an alleged scam in the implementation of Excise Policy 2021-22 and party communication in-charge Vijay Nair is in ED custody in a case.The same AAP termed all these cases as politically motivated.
