Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday, alleging that he wants to crush the Aam Aadmi Party using agencies like the ED and CBI against its leaders.

Kejriwal made the claims after AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan, whose premises were raided by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Tuesday, met with him at his residence here. The opposition BJP in Delhi responded to Kejriwal’s charges, alleging that both his government and his party are “inundated” with corruption.

Talking to reporters after the meeting with the MLA, Kejriwal said, “This is not the only incident where PM Modi has directed the raids on the residence of AAP leaders. Since, the AAP government was formed in Delhi, PM Modi is trying to eliminate AAP with all his might.”

“In 2016, the Centre constituted the Shunglu Committee. The Shunglu Committee asked for 400 files, and top officials inspected them thoroughly, yet they did not find corruption of a single penny,” the chief minister said. The AAP national convener claimed that after this, AAP MLAs were “framed” in “fabricated cases”. “So far, 170 cases have been filed against AAP MLAs, and judgments in 140 cases have been pronounced, all against the central government. All these judgements unequivocally stated that fabricated cases have been filed and arrests have been made against the AAP MLAs,” he said.

Kejriwal also alleged that in the last two years, senior AAP leaders and ministers have been arrested. He was referring to former ministers Manish Sisodia, Satyendar Jain and Sanjay Singh. “The central government arrested Satyendar Jain, Manish Sisodia, and Sanjay Singh, and yesterday, they orchestrated an ED raid on Amanatullah Khan’s residence. Yesterday’s raid at Amanatullah Khan’s residence is also a step towards Modi’s scheme of things to curb the AAP.
