Delhi Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena has allowed the Enforcement Directorate to prosecute former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in the alleged money laundering case linked to the liquor policy scam, said sources. Mr Kejriwal was arrested on March 21 but was released on bail in September.
The BJP will not project a Chief Ministerial candidate for the Delhi polls and a “big name” will contest against Arvind Kejriwal, top party sources told NDTV on Friday.
Not naming a Chief Minister is a strategy that the BJP has followed in Maharashtra, Odisha, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, among other states.
Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party or AAP – earlier than other parties in the poll race – has already announced candidates for all 70 seats for the elections due early next year.
In the same fashion ED is proceeding to question KTR in Telangana on the alleged corruption E race formula case .
