Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal will skip the Enforcement Directorate summons which was issued in connection with a money laundering probe linked to alleged irregularities in the Delhi Jal Board (DJB), the Aam Aadmi Party said.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) also termed the summons “illegal” and accused the BJP government at the Centre of using the Enforcement Directorate (ED) to target Kejriwal.
The Enforcement Directorate had asked Arvind Kejriwal to be present at its office on APJ Abdul Kalam Road on March 18 to provide his statement under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA).
Earlier, the AAP had called out the summons to Arvind Kejriwal and hinted at a “political conspiracy”. The party termed it a “backup” plan to stop him from campaigning in the Lok Sabha polls.
