Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal strongly condemned the Enforcement Directorate (ED) raid on AAP MP Sanjeev Arora. He termed the raid as part of a politically motivated agenda aimed at dismantling the AAP, stating that it is not about corruption but a targeted attack on his party and its leaders by the Modi Government.
Speaking to the media over the issue on Monday, Arvind Kejriwal stated, “This raid is not about corruption. Today, they are conducting an ED raid on Sanjeev Arora. Before this, they arrested me, Sanjay Singh, Manish Sisodia, Satyendar Jain and others. This is not an investigation against corruption; it is clearly an orchestrated attempt by the Prime Minister to crush one party using every resource, agency, and power at his disposal.”
The AAP Convenor also expressed his confidence in the party’s integrity, asserting that AAP has always stood for honesty and accountability. “We have God on our side, and we have done nothing wrong. Despite these attempts to malign us, we remain unshaken and fearless,” he added.
Furthermore, AAP Senior Leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh, who has also been targeted in this series of actions, strongly reacted to the raid on Sanjeev Arora. In his statement, he said, “The Prime Minister of India is only focused on one thing: destroying the Aam Aadmi Party. His sole agenda is to finish AAP and its leaders. What will he achieve by putting people in jail? You are so consumed with hatred that you cannot think about what you will do for the country. You have no concern about how to create jobs, fix the education system, or improve healthcare. Your only concern is how to destroy Kejriwal, the Aam Aadmi Party, and its leaders.”
He also commented on how the Prime Minister embraces corrupt individuals once they align with him. “Those who bow down to this man are spared, no matter how corrupt they are. We, the members of Aam Aadmi Party, continue to fight. I pray to God that he drops such antics soon, and may justice prevail,” he added.
Reacting to the ED raid, AAP MP Sanjeev Arora also took to Twitter to express his stance. In his tweet, he stated: “I am a law-abiding citizen, am not sure about the reason for the search operation, will cooperate fully with agencies and make sure all their queries are answered.”
