AAP slams BJP after ED raids Rajya Sabha MP Sanjeev Arora's house
New Delhi/IBNS: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has lashed out at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) after the Enforcement Directorate raided the residence of Rajya Sabha MP Sanjeev Arora in Punjab's Ludhiana on Monday in connection with a money laundering case, media reports said.
Arora is accused of acquiring land fraudulently.
Reacting to the raid, Arora posted on X, "I am a law abiding citizen, am not sure about the reason for search operation, will cooperate fully with agencies and make sure all their queries are answered."

AAP leader Manish Sisodia wrote on X, "Since this morning, ED is raiding the house of Aam Aadmi Party's Rajya Sabha MP Sanjeev Arora. In the last two years, they have raided Arvind Kejriwal's house, my house, Sanjay Singh's house, Satyendra Jain's house... nothing was found anywhere.
"But Modiji's agencies are engaged with full dedication in making fake cases one after the other. These people will go to any extent to break the Aam Aadmi Party. But no matter how much they try, the Aam Aadmi Party people will neither stop, nor sell themselves, nor get scared."
आज फिर मोदीजी ने अपने तोता मैना को खुला छोड़ दिया है।

आज सुबह से आम आदमी पार्टी के राज्य सभा सांसद संजीव अरोड़ा जी के घर ED वाले रेड कर रहे है। पिछले दो सालों मैं इन्होंने अरविंद केजरीवाल के घर रेड कर लिया, मेरे घर रेड कर दिया, संजय सिंह के घर रेड दिया, सत्येंद्र जैन के घर रेड…
AAP's Sanjay Singh wrote on X, "Another morning, another raid. ED officials have reached AAP MP Sanjeev Arora's house. Modiji's fake case-making machine is after the Aam Aadmi Party 24 hours a day. SC has also reprimanded them several times to stop filing false cases, but still ED is not understanding.
"These agencies do not obey the court, they only obey their masters. But Modiji's arrogance completely fails in front of the courage of Aam Aadmi Party leaders. Modi Ji, you cannot break a staunchly honest party by using fake cases and raids."
Earlier, several top AAP leaders including former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal were arrested in connection with the excise policy case.
Kejriwal and others have been granted bail.
