Why can Kejriwal’s arrest have major consequences?
There may be some people who think like this: India’s Enforcement Directorate (ED) is an independent investigative body that has gone after some prominent people of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) to rid the country of corruption. But I don’t personally know a single person who thinks so.
There is a belief that Arvind Kejriwal was arrested on Thursday night for political reasons. Still, people believe that the ED must have some kind of dirt on AAP to prove its claim that Kejriwal took bribes to formulate the liquor policy, which favored some wholesalers from the South. How else can a Chief Minister of Delhi get arrested from his residence and a former Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi go to jail for so many months?
