The development comes ahead of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders and workers’ plan to protest against the arrest of Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal.
Arvind Kejriwal was arrested on Thursday by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) for his alleged role in the state’s controversial 2021-22 excise policy after questioning him at his residence.
