Imphal, March 23 2024:
Terming the arrest of Delhi chief minister and Aam Aadrni Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal by Enforcement Directorate (ED) as a political conspiracy, AAP Manipur unit has alleged that the arrest is part of the BJP's desperate attempt to suppress the opposition in the country.
Addressing a press meet at the Thangjing Hall of Manipur Press Club, here, on Saturday, AAP Manipur coordinator (activity) Biswanath Thingnam strongly condemned the arrest of Arvind Kejriwal by ED after the election code of conduct was enforced, and demanded early release of the party leader.
As enforcement of code of conduct dictates all law enforcement agencies to follow the guidelines and instruction of the Election Commission of India, arresting the party's leader by ED underscores fascists characteristics of the BJP government and how they are targeting opposition leaders for being vocal against their dictatorial governance, he said, while questioning the attitude of BJP towards the hundreds of political parties in the country.
