Protest Against Sanjeev Arora’s Arrest
AAP leaders will also protest the arrest of Sanjeev Arora. The ED arrested him from his Chandigarh home on Saturday morning. The investigating agency alleges he is involved in a ₹100 crore GST scam and money laundering through Dubai.
AAP Leaders Allege: BJP Is Instigating Action
Jalandhar Urban District President Amritpal Singh alleged that the central government is trying to weaken the AAP in Punjab. He said that the ED is continuously taking action against party leaders and their close associates at the behest of the BJP.
He claimed that leaders were pressured into changing parties, and those who refused are now being targeted by investigative agencies.
ED also keeping an eye on Aman Arora’s close associates
Recent raids have been conducted at the premises of Punjab AAP chief Aman Arora’s close associates and business partners. According to sources, the ED has recovered several important documents and digital evidence during the investigation.
However, the AAP leadership claims this action is being taken out of political vendetta.
