The protest comes after the BJP on Friday attacked Delhi Chief Minister for questioning the Enforcement Directorate’s supplementary charge sheet in the excise scam case and said it proved that he was involved in corruption.
The new Delhi liquor policy was withdrawn last year by the AAP government after a CBI probe was recommended into alleged corruption in its implementation.
The court on Thursday took cognisance of the supplementary charge sheet filed by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against five individuals and seven companies in connection with alleged irregularities in the excise policy case.
The ED claimed that a part of the alleged ₹ 100 crore “kickbacks” earned from the policy was used in the AAP’s campaign for last year’s Goa assembly election.
Kejriwal has said that the case was “fake” and aimed to help the BJP, which governs at the centre, thus holding sway over agencies like the ED, “topple” governments.
