The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) announced on Friday that the ITO Metro station will remain closed from 8 am to 6:00 pm.
Simultaneously, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has declared a nationwide protest against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi following the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. Kejriwal’s arrest is linked to a case related to the city’s liquor policy.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) conducted a search operation at Kejriwal’s residence on Thursday night and subsequently arrested him amidst dramatic circumstances. The ED arrived for questioning in connection with the liquor policy case, leading to a series of events culminating in Kejriwal’s arrest.
The AAP has strongly criticized the arrest, labeling it as politically motivated and an attempt to silence opposition voices. The party has called for nationwide protests to denounce what they perceive as an unjustified and targeted action against Kejriwal.
The closure of the ITO Metro station is expected to impact commuters, prompting them to seek alternative routes during the specified hours.
