The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) finds itself in turbulent waters as the political storm intensifies with the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s aide, Bibhav Kumar, on allegations of assault made by Rajya Sabha MP Swati Maliwal. This controversy has erupted days before Delhi votes for the Lok Sabha elections on May 25. The timing is inopportune for the AAP, as Kejriwal, the party’s national convenor, is currently out on interim bail in connection with the liquor policy case.
