AAP's 'Samuhik Upvas' To Protest Against Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal's Arrest

AAP leaders staged a day-long 'samuhik upvas' in protest against the arrest of Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, at Jantar Mantar.

Many senior AAP leaders such as MP Sanjay Singh, ministers Atishi, Gopal Rai and, Kailash Gahlot, attended the day-long 'Samuhik Upwas' at Jantar Mantar.

Gopal Rai alleged Kejriwal's arrest by the ED in a case linked to the Delhi excise policy-linked scam case was part of BJP's conspiracy.

Sanjay Singh said, 'Kejriwal was, is and will remain honest.' Sanjay Singh is out on bail in the liquor policy case.

'Not just in Delhi, but in 25 states of our country, and in 8 countries of the world, AAP workers fasted against Kejriwal's arrest,' Delhi minister Atishi told ANI.

'Arvind Kejirwal's fault is that he gave good education to the children of Delhi, that he gave good healthcare for free... This is why BJP arrested Arvind Kejriwal,' Atishi claimed.

A massive crowd was seen in the protest during AAP's collective fast.

Similar protests were held in other places by AAP such as in Punjab, Jammu, Haryana, and Maharashtra, according to PTI.

Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann, who joined the fast at freedom fighter Bhagat Singh's village Khatkar Kalan, alleged that freedom and the country's Constitution were in danger.
