'They Can't Claim ED Is Indulging In Vendetta Politics': BJP On Sanjay Singh's Bail
The Bharatiya Janata Party also reacted to the bail granted to AAP leader Sanjay Singh. BJP Spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla said, "There's no stranger party than AAP. They claim that they are a intellectual lot but they're unable to distinguish between an ordinary routine matter of fact bail in an matter and what is clean chit in a case. In over enthusiasm, they've put AAP in further danger. This bail came when ED didn't oppose. That means, they can't claim ED is indulging in vendetta politics. With the celebrations, they're accepting that the leaders who've not got bail are guilty. It means Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia, who're not getting bail, are guilty."
