Atishi has been summoned by a Delhi court on June 29, in connection with a defamation case filed by BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor. Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday reacted to a Delhi court’s summons to AAP leader Atishi in a defamation case, saying the Delhi minister is expected to be arrested next. In a post on X, he said if Narendra Modi becomes the prime minister again, all Opposition leaders will be put behind bars. Arvind Kejriwal, whose interim bail in the Delhi excise policy case will expire on June 2, claimed the central agencies have been arresting all AAP leaders in “flimsy, frivolous and false” cases.“I had said earlier that they will arrest Atishi next. They are planning to do so now. Complete dictatorship. In completely flimsy, frivolous and false cases, they are arresting ALL leaders of AAP one by one. Every single opposition leader will be arrested if Modi ji comes back to power. AAP is not imp. Saving our dear country from dictatorship is imp,” Arvind Kejriwal wrote on X. Atishi was summoned by a Delhi court on June 29, in connection with a defamation case filed by BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor. In April, BJP issued a defamation notice to Atishi after her allegation that she was asked to join the party or face the Enforcement Directorate (ED). Reacting to the summons, BJP’s candidate from the New Delhi constituency, Bansuri Swaraj, accused the AAP of having what she called the habit of “shooting and scooting”. “AAP cannot make defamatory statements against the BJP repeatedly and not be held accountable. Atishi ji will now have to appear before court to present her side,” she added. Bansuri Swaraj said the AAP often levels false allegations thinking there wouldn’t be any consequences.
