Kejriwal Alleges BJP Plot to Arrest Delhi CM Atishi

Delhi politics heats up as Kejriwal accuses BJP of plotting CM Atishi’s arrest to derail AAP’s welfare initiatives.

New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal has accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of conspiring with central agencies to arrest Delhi Chief Minister Atishi on fabricated charges. Addressing the media on Wednesday, Kejriwal claimed the move is a reaction to AAP’s recent welfare initiatives, including the Mahila Samman Yojana and Sanjeevani Yojana.

“The BJP is deeply upset by the overwhelming response to these schemes,” Kejriwal said. “We have announced an allowance of ₹1,000 under the Mahila Samman Yojana and free medical treatment for senior citizens under the Sanjeevani Yojana. These decisions have rattled the BJP, which has no significant work to showcase in Delhi over the last decade.”

Kejriwal alleged that a recent meeting involving officials from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Enforcement Directorate (ED), and Income Tax Department included instructions to arrest CM Atishi. “Sources reveal that raids on senior AAP leaders will precede her arrest,” he said.

The Delhi Chief Minister’s post has become a focal point of political contention after Atishi assumed the role. Kejriwal accused the BJP of attempting to derail AAP’s governance through obstructionist tactics. “Despite their efforts, we remain focused on delivering to the people,” he added.

Kejriwal further claimed the BJP’s campaign in Delhi is centered on criticism rather than achievements, contrasting it with AAP’s focus on “positive governance.” He asserted that the BJP is aware of an impending electoral defeat and is resorting to desperate measures to undermine AAP.

No official response from the BJP was available at the time of reporting. The allegations have further intensified the political rivalry between the two parties as Delhi gears up for upcoming elections.
