Arvind Kejriwal Arrested Amid Delhi Liquor Policy Scandal

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, a key rival to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, faces charges in connection with the Delhi liquor policy case, sparking widespread protests and political turmoil.

Arvind Kejriwal, Delhi's Chief Minister, was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) over allegations linked to the Delhi liquor policy, leading to his custody until March 28.
Kejriwal's arrest has ignited protests across Delhi, with demonstrators demanding his immediate release and accusing the Modi government of using federal agencies to suppress opposition.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and opposition parties have rallied in support of Kejriwal, asserting his continued role as Chief Minister and denouncing the charges as politically motivated.
International reactions include Germany's expression of concern over the fairness of Kejriwal's trial, prompting India to protest what it sees as interference in its internal affairs.
Legal challenges and public demonstrations underscore the deepening political divide ahead of the national election, with Kejriwal's AAP forming part of the INDIA alliance opposing Modi's BJP.
