Furthermore, it is pertinent to note that in response to the action against  AAP MLA, senior party leader and MP Sanjay Singh criticized the central government and the ED for their actions.

AAP is neither going to bow down nor going to be afraid: Amanatullah Khan

Significantly, in a separate video statement released amid ED's present action, AAP MLA Amanatullah Khan said the probing agency has been harassing him since the last two years by filing fake cases. He said the ED is creating some or the other problem for not only him but AAP too. However, he added that neither he nor the party will bow down against them. 

He said, "ED has come to my residence to arrest me in the name of a search warrant. My mother-in-law has been diagnosed with cancer. She had an operation four days ago. She is also at my house. I have written to them (ED), and I have replied to every notice. Their only motive is to arrest me and stop our work. For the last two years, these people have been harassing me and filing fake cases against me." 

"Every day, they are creating some or the other problem for not only me but my entire party...We are neither going to bow down to them nor are we going to be afraid of them; they will send us to jail. I am hopeful that the way we got justice in the court earlier, this time too we will get justice...," he added.
