"We have information that Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal will be arrested in the next 2-3 days. The question is, why is the Central Government showing such haste?...Even the BJP people are telling us that if an alliance (with Congress) is forged, Arvind Kejriwal be jailed and that if we want to see him outside there is just one way -that Arvind Kejriwal doesn't become a part of INDIA Alliance with Congress. It is clear that the BJP is very nervous. It thinks that if AAP and Congress come together, wherever an alliance is formed, in whichever state - it will be difficult for BJP, difficult for it to form a government, " said Bharadwaj during the press conference.

Yesterday, Delhi BJP president Virender Sachdeva mentioned that the investigation agencies are performing their duties and whether Kejriwal will be arrested or not is their decision. The BJP has denied these allegations, calling them "baseless" and accusing the AAP of resorting to "cheap tactics" to divert attention from ongoing investigations.
