The editorial
Source: The Times of India · 30 Sep 2023NEW DELHI: Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Friday said the Aam Aadmi Party is committed to the opposition INDIA alliance and will not break away from it. His comments assume significance against the backdrop of the Congress' Punjab unit accusing the AAP government in the state of indulging in political vendetta following the arrest of Congress MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira in connection with a 2015 drug trafficking case.
The AAP has, however, rejected the allegation saying the action against the Bholath legislator was taken according to the law.
