TMC condemns arrest of Delhi CM Kejriwal

Kolkata, Mar 22 (UNI) The West Bengal ruling Trinamool Congress has condemned the arrest of Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in the alleged liquor policy scam on Thursday evening.
"We vehemently condemn the arrest of Arvind Kejriwal, an elected CM, especially when the EC is in charge and the MCC is in place," TMC Rajya Sabha leader Derek O'Brien said.
He said earlier, his (Kejriwal) administrative powers were snatched through an illegal ordinance and then arrested.
"How can we expect fair elections in India if sitting CMs and prominent opposition leaders are arrested weeks before the polls?"" If SC and ECI fail to act now, who will stand with people against the BJP's oppressive politics in the future, Brian asked on his social media post.
