The Polit Bureau of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) strongly condemns the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister and National Convenor of AAP, Shri Arvind Kejriwal by the ED.
Clearly, the Modi government and the BJP are in a panic over the growing disenchantment of the people with the Modi government’s performance, disclosures of its own corrupt practices and exposures of electoral bond details. Hence, they are vindictively targeting opposition leaders.
This is the second Chief Minister belonging to the INDIA bloc to be arrested. All opposition leaders who stand committed to defeating BJP in the forthcoming elections in order to safeguard the Indian Constitution and democracy are being targeted, while those who defect and join the BJP are protected, rewarded and patronized.
The Polit Bureau of the CPI(M) calls upon all its units to join the united protest actions in Delhi and across the country.
