The protesters raised slogans hailing party leader Sanjay Singh. Dependra Pathak, Special Commissioner of Police asserted that they have made proper arrangements and that there are enough police personnel as they do not want law and order to deteriorate at any cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WATCH?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WATCH<\/a> | Mumbai, Maharashtra | Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) workers and supporters who were protesting over the arrest of AAP MP Sanjay Singh have now been detained by the Police. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/iyn7HUE9QG\">pic.twitter.com\/iyn7HUE9QG<\/a><\/p>&mdash; ANI (@ANI) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ANI\/status\/1709815537734459770?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 5, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WATCH?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#WATCH<\/a> | Aam Aadmi Party workers and supporters gather outside the party headquarters in Delhi, raise slogans hailing party leader Sanjay Singh who was arrested by Enforcement Directorate in connection with the Delhi liquor policy case yesterday <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/czOcCMZmYt\">pic.twitter.com\/czOcCMZmYt<\/a><\/p>&mdash; ANI (@ANI) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ANI\/status\/1709808105704603870?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 5, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Notably, this is the third major arrest from the Arvind Kejriwal led Aam Aadmi party. Speaking on the matter, the AAP leaders accused the Centre of trying to silence its MP Sanjay Singh by arresting him. The party leaders challenged the BJP-led Union government to make public any evidence they have against him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Addressing a press conference, senior AAP leader Atishi claimed that more than 500 officers of the ED and CBI conducted raids at various locations linked to AAP leaders in the last 15 months but they haven\u2019t found any single evidence against them. She further challenged that if BJP found any evidence against Sanjay Singh, they should make it public or quit politics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, BJP leaders staged a protest against the AAP government in Delhi at Rajghat, a day after Sanjay Singh\u2019s arrest in an excise policy case. BJP Leader Bansuri Swaraj claimed that Sanjay Singh\u2019s arrest is very obvious as Dinesh Arora accused in Delhi excise policy scam has claimed that Sanjay Singh organised the meeting between him and Arvind Kejriwal.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">VIDEO | BJP leaders stage protest against AAP government in Delhi at Rajghat, day after Sanjay Singh&#39;s arrest in excise policy case. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/vCRfnB6FpB\">pic.twitter.com\/vCRfnB6FpB<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Press Trust of India (@PTI_News) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PTI_News\/status\/1709820377604526582?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 5, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva noted that their MLAs and MPs have organised a Prarthana Sabha at Rajghat to pray for Delhi so that the corrupt rule of the\u00a0 AAP government ends in the national capital.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AAP leader Atishi claimed that more than 500 officers of the ED and CBI conducted raids at various locations linked to AAP leaders in the last 15 months but they haven\u2019t found any single evidence against them. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":490632,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[4],"tags":[58,3185],"yst_prominent_words":[25304,24745,25298,29773,15399,4422,44607,44601,11246,21457,33372,44011],"ppma_author":[140543],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/d2r2ijn7njrktv.cloudfront.net\/apnlive\/uploads\/2023\/10\/05122919\/Capture-9.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"authors":[{"term_id":140543,"user_id":4,"is_guest":0,"slug":"apnnewsdesk","display_name":"APN Live","avatar_url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/478eacb893eda88aa6ed8d99b005bf58?s=96&r=g"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/490630"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=490630"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/490630\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/490632"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=490630"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=490630"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=490630"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=490630"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/apnlive.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=490630"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<!-- html is corrupted -->
