There is a talk in the political circles if Kejriwal the CM would resign or continue as the CM from the Jail.
Delhi CM Kejriwal will be produced in a court today. The Enforcement Directorate will seek his custody for interrogation.
This is the 16th arrest by the ED in the case, including that of AAP leaders Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh. Arvind Kejriwal had skipped nine summonses issued by the agency for questioning.
Both Kavitha and Kejriwal were in the custody of ED in the same office in Delhi.
The BJP said Kejriwal reaped what he sowed and asserted that the law has finally caught up with him after his long-drawn efforts to evade it. “Arrest of Kejriwal symbolises the defeat of corruption, and now Kejriwal should resign immediately. It is an insult to constitutional norms for leaders of the Kejriwal party to say that Kejriwal will run the government from jail,” said Delhi BJP president Virendra Sachdeva.
Delhi minister Saurabh Bharadwaj claimed that every corner of Arvind Kejriwal’s house was searched by the agency. He said the ED found only ₹70,000 from his house. He said Kejriwal’s mobile phone was seized. “The ED didn’t get any evidence, property documents, illegal money, or money trail,” he claimed.AAP leader Atishi said the party had moved the Supreme Court to quash orders against Kejriwal through a midnight hearing. However, per reports, no special bench was set up on Thursday night. “He(Kejriwal) will continue as the chief minister of Delhi. If need be, he will run the government from jail.
