On Wednesday, the AAP alleged that central probe agencies, under the BJP's influence, are working with ill-will and political malice against its leaders. The party stated that it will urge INDIA bloc leaders to raise Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's arrest in Parliament.

Kejriwal was taken into the CBI's custody for three days concerning the excise policy case. Following his formal arrest, Kejriwal's wife Sunita claimed that forces are conspiring to keep her husband behind bars, likening the situation to 'dictatorship' and 'emergency.'

The Aam Aadmi Party further accused the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party at the Centre of orchestrating Kejriwal's arrest in a 'fake case,' while the BJP hit back, accusing AAP of creating 'melodrama' to distract from Delhi's water crisis.
