  • Upcoming 2024 Polls AAP vs BJP Contest said Sisodia

    Manish Sisodia, Delhi's deputy CM, said on Saturday that the 2024 general election would be a contest between Narendra Modi and Arvind Kejriwal, with the BJP's sole goal being to prevent Kejriwal from working.A day after the CBI raided Sisodia's home for 16 hours in relation to a purported liquor policy fraud, Sisodia said he may be arrested within a few days but isn't worried.

    Context
    Why does this story matter?
    • The CBI raided Sisodia's house on Friday morning in regards to corruption allegations in the Delhi liquor policy.
    • Allegations regarding the recently dropped liquor sale policy have triggered a dispute between the Delhi government and Lieutenant-Governor (LG) VK Saxena, who had asked for a CBI investigation.
    • Implemented in November 2021, the policy privatized the sale of alcoholic beverages in the national capital.

    Official statement over the development

    "The BJP-ruled central government isn't worried about the excise fraud, it's worried about Arvind Kejriwal because they see him as the prime challenger to PM Modi in the upcoming general elections," Sisodia reported stated."People used to ask Modi versus who. Now a nationwide atmosphere...favors...Kejriwal," he added while highlighting that the 2024 elections would primarily be an AAP vs BJP contest.
