Following the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, the opposition has sought Election Commission’s interference. An all-party opposition delegation, which met with the poll body on Friday, said that they had presented evidence of agencies’ alleged misuse against the opposition. They emphasized that this is the first instance in the history of independent India where a sitting Chief Minister has been arrested. Addressing media after meeting with the Commission in New Delhi, Senior Congress leader Abhishek Manu Singhvi alleged that Central agencies are being misused against opposition leaders which undermines the fairness of the electoral process and democracy. Leaders from Congress, TMC, DMK, Left, Samajwadi Party and others were part of the delegation.
