Sunita Kejriwal Reacts To Arvind Kejriwal’s Bail Getting Paused: Dictatorship Has Increased In The Country

In response, Sunita Kejriwal drew attention to the fact that, even prior to the order being issued, the ED had petitioned the Delhi High Court to oppose the bail. She said that the government and its central authorities were treating her husband like a wanted terrorist.

“It has become like this… as if Arvind Kejriwal is the most wanted terrorist… Dictatorship has increased in the country,” she stated. She added, “The High Court has not yet rendered a decision. We’re hoping the High Court will rule fairly.”
