ED notice to Pankaj Gupta; AAP alleges Centre targeting its leaders
The Hindu
Aam Aadmi Party alleged that the BJP is rattled by the increasing popularity of Arvind Kejriwal and the rising graph of the party in several poll-bound states.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Monday alleged that the Enforcement Directorate (ED) has sent a notice to its national secretary Pankaj Gupta under a "fabricated" case under the PMLA and that the BJP-led central government was targeting its leaders as the saffron party was "rattled" by the AAP's growth and Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's popularity in other states. "In Delhi, they tried to defeat us with IT Dept, CBI, Delhi Police - but we won 62 seats. As we grow in Punjab, Goa, Uttarakhand, Guj - we get an ED notice! The people of India want honest politics- these tactics of BJP will never succeed, they will make us stronger," Mr. Kejriwal said in a tweet. ED sources said that Pankaj Gupta is to be questioned in connection with a money laundering case being investigated against Punjab Congress legislator Sukhpal Singh Khaira and his family members.More Related News
