Atishi Claims BJP Switch Offer, Says These AAP Leaders To Be Arrested Soon
Four more senior leaders of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) are set to be arrested over the next two months, Delhi minister Atishi alleged today, accusing the BJP of using central agencies in its attempt to crush AAP. The ruling party, she alleged, plans to arrest her, Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj, AAP MP Raghav Chadha and party MLA Durgesh Pathak.
"The BJP has approached me through someone very close. They have asked me to join the BJP and said this will save my political career. They have threatened that if I don't switch over, ED (Enforcement Directorate) will arrest me within a month," she told the media.
She said the person who approached her on behalf of the BJP had said that the ruling party had "made up its mind on crushing everyone in AAP".
"First, they put everyone in AAP's leadership in jail. Satyendra Jain, Manish Sisodia, Sanjay Singh and now Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal have been arrested. The BJP's plan is to arrest four more AAP leaders in the next two months. They will arrest me, Saurabh Bharadwaj, Durgesh Pathak and Raghav Chadha," she said.
The BJP, Ms Atishi said, had thought that the party would splinter after Arvind Kejriwal's arrest. "But after the rally in Ramlila Maidan Sunday, the BJP thinks the arrest of four leaders was not enough," she said.
The Delhi minister claimed that she had received information that ED may raid her and her relatives' homes in the coming days. "We are Arvind Kejriwal's soldiers, we won't be cowed down by BJP's threats."
Ms Atishi referred to the ED's submission in court that Mr Kejriwal had said AAP's former communication boss Vijay Nair reported to her and Mr Bharadwaj.
"This information is already in ED's and CBI's chargesheets. It is possible that ED took our names so that they proceed on arresting the second line of AAP leadership," she said.
The BJP described the AAP leader's allegations as "baseless". Party leader RP Singh said, "I too can say that Saurabh Bharadwaj called me up and requested me to protect them from Arvind Kejriwal who wants to put them behind bars and make Sunita Kejriwal the Chief Minister. This is their internal tussle, which is coming out again and again in different forms."
"The truth is that action will be taken against all whose names are involved in the matter. It is clear that the fight for the CM post has begun in AAP. Saurabh Bharadwaj and Atishi are on one side and Sunita Kejriwal and Arvind Kejriwal are on the other," he alleged, according to news agency ANI.
Ms Atishi's allegations and the BJP's counter are the latest in the heated exchanges between AAP and BJP leaders in the wake of Mr Kejriwal's arrest in a money laundering related to Delhi's now-scrapped liquor policy. The Chief Minister has been remanded in judicial custody till April 15 and moved to Delhi's Tihar jail. The ED has said he is not cooperating in the probe.

K Kavitha Case: Legal Dynamics and Political Ramifications - A Comprehensive Analysis of the Supreme Court's Decision
Introduction
The recent ruling by the Supreme Court in the case involving K Kavitha, a leader of the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS), has ignited widespread debate and scrutiny. This comprehensive analysis delves into the intricate legal dynamics, the political ramifications, and the broader implications of the Court's decision.
The Context: K Kavitha Legal Battle
K Kavitha's entanglement in a money laundering case linked to the Delhi Excise Policy has thrust her into the spotlight. The Enforcement Directorate's (ED) allegations and subsequent arrest have set the stage for a legal showdown with far-reaching consequences. The Supreme Court's intervention becomes pivotal in navigating the complexities of justice and politics.
Understanding the Supreme Court's Decision
The Supreme Court's refusal to grant urgent relief to K Kavitha, while directing her to seek bail from the trial court, marks a significant development in the legal saga. A special bench comprising Justices Sanjiv Khanna, MM Sundresh, and Bela M Trivedi underscored the need for adherence to due process while refraining from commenting on the merits of the case.
Legal Proceedings: A Complex Landscape
The legal landscape surrounding K Kavitha's case is multifaceted, with implications extending beyond individual culpability. The Court's decision to issue notice in Kavitha's challenge against provisions of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and to tag the matter with petitions seeking review of the Vijay Madanlal judgment reflects the intricacies of legal procedure and precedent.
The Bail Conundrum for K Kavitha
The expeditious consideration of Kavitha's bail plea emerges as a central concern amidst the legal proceedings. Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal's impassioned pleas for a fair hearing and his emotional appeal underscore the gravity of the situation. The delicate balance between legal impartiality and political influence comes to the fore as the Court navigates through the complexities of bail jurisprudence.
Political Implications: Balancing Justice and Influence
The intersection of law and politics in K Kavitha's case raises profound questions about the sanctity of democratic institutions and the role of political actors in shaping legal outcomes. The Court's assertion that political status does not confer special privileges underscores the imperative of upholding the rule of law in a democratic society.
Allegations and Investigations: Unraveling the Excise Policy Scandal
The Enforcement Directorate's allegations against K Kavitha and her alleged involvement in the "South Group" lobby of liquor traders shed light on the intricate web of corruption and political intrigue surrounding the excise policy case. The ED's investigation into kickbacks and illicit transactions underscores the gravity of the charges and the imperative of accountability in public office.
Legal Precedent and Judicial Discourse
K Kavitha's case joins a list of high-profile arrests in connection with the excise policy case, including former Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia and AAP Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh. The legal precedent set by the Court in adjudicating these cases reverberates across the legal landscape, shaping future jurisprudence and judicial discourse.
Arvind Kejriwal's Response: Navigating Political Turmoil Amidst K Kavitha Legal Battle
Following K Kavitha's arrest, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's decision to move the Supreme Court adds another layer of complexity to the ongoing legal saga. His strategic maneuvering and political resilience in the face of adversity underscore the symbiotic relationship between law and politics in shaping public discourse and electoral outcomes.
Conclusion: Toward Justice and Accountability in K Kavitha Case
As the legal proceedings unfold, the nation grapples with the complexities of justice, accountability, and political expediency. The Supreme Court's role as the arbiter of truth and fairness becomes paramount in upholding the principles of democracy and the rule of law. In navigating the intricate legal dynamics and political ramifications of K Kavitha's case, the Court charts a course toward justice and accountability, ensuring that the wheels of justice continue to turn in the service of the nation.

Delhi HC Issues Notice to Enforcement Directorate in AAP MP Sanjay Singh's Bail Plea
Today, the Delhi High Court took action by sending a notice to the Enforcement Directorate following a plea from Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh. Singh sought bail after his arrest in connection to a money laundering case linked to the Delhi excise policy scam.
Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma announced that the next hearing for the case is scheduled for January 29.
Senior Advocate Mohit Mathur represented Singh in court and informed the proceedings that Singh had not been specifically identified in the initial offense. Mathur emphasized that Singh's arrest followed only after the tenth statement made by a witness.
Since October 4, 2023, Singh has been in the custody of the Enforcement Directorate (ED) subsequent to a search conducted at his residence by the agency. He has remained in judicial custody since October 13.
The trial rejected his bail plea on December 22, 2023.
The allegations against Singh revolve around his purported involvement in devising and executing the defunct Delhi excise policy. This policy is accused of being designed to favor specific liquor manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers, with Singh allegedly playing a significant role in its formulation and implementation.
Sanjay Singh's arrest represents the third significant apprehension of an AAP figure in connection to the excise policy case. Earlier, AAP's communications in-charge Vijay Nair was arrested in September 2022, followed by the arrest of former Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi, Manish Sisodia, in February 2023. As of now, both Nair and Sisodia remain in detention.
Earlier, Singh had filed a plea contesting his arrest, citing it as an abuse of the legal process and a breach of the Supreme Court's judgment in the Pankaj Bansal v. Union of India case, often referred to as the M3M Reality case.
However, the High Court dismissed this plea on October 20, 2023, asserting that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) holds a prominent status as an investigating agency. The court cautioned against attributing political motives to the ED, highlighting potential implications for the country's reputation.
Singh subsequently approaches the Supreme Court regarding this matter, which is currently handling and reviewing the case.

Huge BJP Protest Against Arvind Kejriwal Over Delhi Liquor Policy Case
Arvind Kejriwal has refuted allegations that "kickbacks" from the now-scrapped liquor sales policy were used to fund the AAP's election campaign in Goa last year.
New Delhi: The BJP on Saturday organised a huge protest outside the Aam Aadmi Party's offices in Delhi, demanding Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's resignation over allegations of corruption linked to the now-scrapped liquor sales policy
BJP workers were seen clashing with the police and trying to breach the barricades put up to control the crowd. Others stood with placards and shouted slogans.
The BJP has targeted the Chief Minister over the recently filed second charge sheet by the Enforcement Directorate and said it proved that he was involved in corruption.
A court on Thursday accepted the supplementary charge sheet against five individuals and seven companies in connection with alleged irregularities in the Delhi excise policy.
The policy was withdrawn last year by the AAP government after a CBI probe was ordered by the capital's Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena, a representative of the BJP-led government at the centre.
The Enforcement Directorate, which investigates financial crimes and also reports to the BJP-led government at the centre, claimed that a part of the alleged ₹ 100 crore "kickbacks" earned from the policy was used in the AAP's campaign for last year's Goa assembly election.
Mr Kejriwal has strongly refuted all charges, and said that the case was "fake" and aimed to help the BJP "topple" governments.
The agency has also claimed that an accused in the alleged scam - Aam Aadmi Party communications in-charge Vijay Nair -- had arranged a FaceTime video call from his phone between Mr Kejriwal and the boss of a liquor firm who has been arrested.
On behalf of AAP leaders, Vijay Nair received ₹ 100 crore as advance for licenses in Delhi liquor policy, the agency has alleged.
Vijay is "his boy," and Mr Kejriwal had apparently told Sameer Mahendru, chief of Indospirits, to "trust him and carry on with him," the ED has claimed in the chargesheet, which has been accessed by NDTV. Mr Kejriwal is not named in the chargesheet as an accused.
AAP sources claimed that there is no truth in the allegations of the Enforcement Directorate and that Sameer Mahendru has told a court that his statement was obtained under duress.
The Enforcement Directorate and the CBI have claimed that irregularities were committed while modifying Delhi's excise policy with connivance and kickbacks from a lobby known as the "South Group".
The group comprised Kavitha of Telangana's ruling Bharat Rashtra Samithi, Magunta Srinivasalu Reddy, an MP from Andhra Pradesh's ruling YSR Congress, and Sarath Reddy of Aurobindo Pharma, the agency has alleged.
Under it, the licence fee was waived or reduced, and undue favours were extended to liquor licence holders, the agencies have claimed.
Delhi's Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia has been named as an accused and questioned in the case. The others accused in the case include then Excise Commissioner Arva Gopi Krishna, Deputy Commissioner Anand Tiwari and Assistant Commissioner Pankaj Bhatnagar.
AAP had claimed that the case, which came up in the run-up to the Gujarat elections, was a diversionary tactic of the BJP, which later swept the polls. Mr Sisodia, after a nine-hour questioning session by the Enforcement Directorate officials, claimed they asked him to quit AAP.

Arvind Kejriwal Compares Manish Sisodia With Bhagat Singh, Congress Livid
The Congress hit out at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal today for comparing those accused of corruption in connection with the liquor policy for the national capital to freedom fighter Bhagat Singh, saying it was unfortunate and a “cheap political act”.
Mr Dikshit also said Manish Sisodia should give evidence in support of the allegation raised by him that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) attempted to poach AAP MLAs under “Operation Lotus” and asked the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to bring out the video-recordings once the investigation is concluded.
“It is very shameful that AAP ministers are being accused of corruption relating to the liquor policy. Those accused of corruption are being compared to Bhagat Singh, who inspires every Indian. It is very unfortunate and sad. Rarely has there been a cheap political act than this. We strongly condemn this,” Sandeep Dikshit told reporters.
He accused Arvind Kejriwal and his party of adopting all kinds of low tactics in politics and said they have now fallen to a new low by taking the name of Bhagat Singh along with those accused of corruption.
The statement should be withdrawn, Mr Dikshit said.
The former MP said Arvind Kejriwal used to say privatisation of anything amounts to corruption and yet, he handed over the entire liquor business in Delhi from the government to the private sector.
“Those who are involved in corruption create a lot of noise and drama and one should understand that the more noise one creates, the more is that person involved in corruption,” Mr Dikshit said.
He alleged that Delhi’s liquor policy was changed at a time when elections in Punjab and Uttarakhand were round the corner.
“If this policy was in public interest, why was it withdrawn? We expect the investigating agencies to act honestly,” the Congress leader said.
Referring to Mr Sisodia’s “Operation Lotus” allegation, he said the Deputy Chief Minister should give proof in support of the charge.
