    AAP's Raghav Chadha is likely to be arrested, according to Kejriwal's latest claim.




     Digital Desk: Preparations
    to arrest Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Raghav Chadha have been underway since
    his appointment as the party's co-in charge for the Gujarat assembly elections,
    according to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday. In an apparent dig
    at the BJP, the AAP chief tweeted that "these people" are currently
    deliberating on the "case and allegations" to be leveled against the
    Rajya Sabha member.



     



    "We are hearing
    that these people will arrest Raghav Chadha now that he has been appointed as a co-in charge of Gujarat and has begun participating in poll campaigns in
    Gujarat," said Kejriwal, the AAP's national convenor, in a Hindi tweet.



     



    "In which case
    they will (arrest) and what the allegations will be, these people are currently
    working on these points," he added.



     



    On Tuesday, the CBI
    arrested the party's media communications in-charge, Vijay Nair, in connection
    with the alleged Delhi excise policy scam.



    Raghav Chadha echoed
    his party leader's claim, saying the BJP has lost sleep over the AAP's rise.



     



    "We are Bhagat
    Singh supporters, and we are not afraid of your jail walls or the noose,"
    he added.



     



    Manish Sisodia, the deputy chief minister of Delhi who is
    under investigation for an alleged liquor scam, said the BJP wants to avoid a
    loss in Gujarat by arresting AAP leaders. Sisodia claimed that the saffron
    party has squandered 27 years of Gujarati people's time by failing to build "good
    schools and hospitals," and that the public wants Kejriwal to reconsider.



     "The BJP has ruined the people of Gujarat for the past
    27 years." There are no good schools or hospitals. Whether it's young
    people looking for work, farmers, cow herders, or rickshaw pullers... Everyone
    wants to give @ArvindKejriwal Ji another chance. "By arresting @aap
    leaders, the BJP hopes to avoid losing elections in Gujarat," he said in a
    tweet.
