Delhi excise policy case: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has issued summons to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for questioning on January 19 (Friday) in connection with the money laundering investigation related to the excise policy.
This marks the fourth notice to Kejriwal, who is also the national convenor of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). He had previously declined to appear before the federal agency on three earlier summons dated November 2, December 21, January 3, and January 18.
Earlier, Arvind Kejriwal alleged the BJP-led Central government wanted to arrest him and prevent from campaigning for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls 2024, saying the ED summons issued to him was aimed at hurting his biggest asset honesty, and defaming him.
