Wherever there are elections, there ED-CBI action

Aam Aadmi Party has made serious allegations against the Central Government and the investigating agencies regarding this matter. Party leader and former minister Saurabh Bhardwaj said that wherever elections are held, the action of investigative agencies against leaders of opposition parties increases. He alleged that there were elections in Delhi in 2025, before that the action of ED and CBI during 2022, 2023 and 2024 was focused on the leaders of Delhi. According to him, many ministers, MPs and even chief ministerial level leaders had to face investigation.

Saurabh Bhardwaj further claimed that even during the election atmosphere in West Bengal, the activity of ED, CBI and Income Tax Department had increased. Now, amid the intensification of political activities in Punjab and Goa, raids and investigative actions are taking place there too. He said that ED raided the Delhi and Goa locations of AAP co-in-charge Deepak Singla in Goa, following which he was arrested. The party says that this entire action is politically motivated.
