Overview

• Addressing AAP MLAs and councillors in Delhi on August 28, Arvind Kejriwal questioned why no Gandhi family member was jailed in the National Herald case.
• He alleged selective enforcement by claiming the BJP pursued fabricated cases against AAP leaders while cases like 2G and coal were shut without jailing senior Congress figures.
• Kejriwal cited an unverified account of an ED raid on AAP Delhi chief Saurabh Bhardwaj, alleging parts of his statement were deleted and that he was threatened with arrest.
• Delhi Congress president Devender Yadav dismissed the accusations, saying Kejriwal is playing into a larger BJP conspiracy and noting Congress leaders have complied with agency summons.
• The confrontation unfolds after AAP’s exit from the INDIA bloc and its push for a broader national footprint, intensifying friction with its former ally.
