Delhi Excise Policy Case: ED issues 9th summons to CM Arvind Kejriwal, Atishi says ‘PM Modi and BJP don’t care about…’
The Enforcement Directorate issued a ninth summons to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, asking him to appear on March 21 in the excise policy case. Kejriwal, granted bail against arrest for skipping previous summons, appeared before the Rouse Avenue court. \r
Delhi Minister Atishi defended Kejriwal's actions, accusing BJP of trying to hinder his campaigning. Kejriwal claims the summons are "illegal." The ED seeks Kejriwal's statement on excise policy formulation and bribery allegations. The policy aimed to revitalize liquor business but was scrapped due to alleged irregularities. AAP accuses Lieutenant Governor Vinai Kumar Saxena and predecessor Anil Baijal of sabotaging the policy. \r
AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh are already in custody in the case.
