Atmosphere of fear has pervaded country’s politics, industry: Kejriwal after Sanjay Singh’s arrest

Stating that “false cases” were being slapped to immobilise and intimidate opposition leaders and parties, the Delhi CM said, “To promote the country’s progress, everyone should work together. The BJP cannot make India progress by misusing the powers of investigative agencies in such a manner.”

During an inspection of Ghazipur landfill site, he said, “The BJP does not have a single piece of evidence (against AAP leaders). People have been made to give false statements through torture. In a few days, the liquor scam will be closed, and these people will bring something new. In reality, they need to entangle people in investigations by various agencies. These people neither do any work themselves nor allow others to work.” Not only opposition leaders but businesspersons were also being targeted “severely”, Kejriwal alleged stating that it was “disheartening” that in the past 5-7 years, “nearly 12-13 lakh high net worth individuals had given up Indian citizenship”.
