He addressed a press conference that the leaders and workers of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) do not fear these agencies because they have done nothing illegal.
“According to our sources, the ED will arrest Satyendar Jain in the coming days, just before the Punjab elections (Delhi Health and Home Minister). They’re more than welcome. Satyendar Jain has previously been the target of Centre raids that yielded nothing “According to Kejriwal.
He further claimed that when the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) realises it is losing, it uses all of the government’s agencies to attack its opponents.
“Elections are ahead and there will be raids and arrests. We are unconcerned about such raids and arrests because we have committed no wrongdoing “According to the AAP’s chief.
He went on to say that prior raids on his office, his deputy Manish Sisodia’s office, Jain’s apartment, and the homes of AAP’s 21 MLAs had yielded nothing.
Kejriwal also slammed Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi, saying that his supporters will not cry like him.
