Meanwhile, Delhi Cabinet ministers Atishi and Saurabh Bharadwaj were detained as AAP leaders staged a protest against the BJP over the arrest of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal by the Enforcement Directorate in the excise policy case.The two ministers were lodged in a police bus as officials asked protesters at the ITO intersection, which is near the AAP and BJP offices, to disperse in view of prohibitory orders under section 144 imposed in the area.”I have been detained by Delhi Police while peacefully protesting at ITO. First, these people arrest the Chief Minister of Delhi in false cases, and now those participating in peaceful protests are also being arrested. If this isn’t the murder of democracy, then what is?,” Atishi posted on X.Following Kejriwal’s arrest Thursday evening, the AAP had given a nationwide call for protest against the BJP.
