Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has said the CBI action against his deputy Manish Sisodia in an alleged excise policy scam is a move to discourage the Aam Aadmi Party, or AAP, from campaigning and contesting in the upcoming Gujarat assembly election. The Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi earlier in the day predicted his arrest as part of what he called a BJP "plan" to stop him from campaigning for the Gujarat election. He also took out a roadshow in an open-roof SUV on his way to the CBI office and made many stops, including at Mahatma Gandhi's memorial Raj Ghat, and addressed AAP workers.
