New Delhi: The BJP on Thursday said the entire country is waiting for Arvind Kejriwal to resign on moral grounds for being jailed in the excise policy scam, while the AAP said its national coordinator had been charged by the ED. just to keep him in cell.

Kejriwal "directly utilized" part of the alleged Rs 100 crore generated from the "bribes" of the Delhi excise policy "scam" by staying at a luxury hotel in Goa, the ED claimed in its sheet of charges filed against the AAP supremo.

The federal investigation agency also claimed that the GoM (Group of Ministers) constituted by his government in this context was a "farce".

Addressing a press conference, BJP MP Manoj Tiwari alleged that the entire Aam Aadmi Party was mired in corruption.

“All evidence points against Arvind Kejriwal, who pleaded for resignation even in the face of minor allegations but remained in his post as CM throughout the case and even after his arrest.

"After being named as 'Accused No. 37' in the ED chargesheet, people in Delhi are expecting him to resign on moral grounds. However, when an entire party is implicated in a scam, questions arise. important about the future of the party," he said.

Tiwari said that under the AAP government, Delhi is suffering from water shortage or excessive flooding and the party has no reason to remain in power.

"The entire party accused of scam is charged with number 38 in the ED charge sheet, which means they have no right to remain in the government. If Arvind Kejriwal continues to run the government through letters, he owes it to the Delhi public to clarify what they can expect from his administration," he added.

AAP National General Secretary (Organisation) Sandeep Pathak claimed that the ED did not have any evidence against Kejriwal or the AAP and the move is aimed at keeping the Delhi Chief Minister in jail.

Addressing a press conference, Pathak said the ED has just filed the seventh supplementary charge sheet in the "so-called" liquor scam "masterminded by the Bharatiya Janata Party".

“After raiding thousands of locations during two years of investigation, after attracting nationwide attention, the country received another charge sheet.

"I believe that on June 20, the PMLA Special Court gave its order very clearly on all the issues highlighted in the charge sheet. The order of June 20 was passed keeping in mind all the investigations and evidence of the ED in the last two years," he said.

“In PMLA it is said that unless the proceeds of crime are established, i.e. where the money came from and where it was spent, a case cannot be filed.

"There is no evidence on this. If you read the court order, it is very clearly written in its paragraph 24 that the ED has not clarified how it is required to trace the complete trail of the money, which means that the ED could not establish where it came from all the money and where it went. It is also written that since ED cannot find where the money is, ED wants to keep him in jail until they trace the money," he added. 3 SLB VN
