The BJP said on Friday that though a court has discharged AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal for “lack of evidence” in a case involving the Delhi excise policy, the people of the national capital have already given him a “political response on political grounds” and the probe agency will now decide its next course of action based on technical grounds.
Asked about the court discharging Kejriwal, BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi also said it is a “technical matter” and the party will come up with a “structured response” on the court’s judgment, after studying it.
Among the 21 people given a clean chit in the case is Telangana Jagruthi president K Kavitha.Coming down heavily on the CBI, special judge Jitendra Singh refused to take cognisance of the federal agency’s chargesheet against them. It also observed that the case did not withstand judicial scrutiny, especially when the CBI sought to construct a narrative of conspiracy on mere conjectures.
Asked about the discharge of Kejriwal and the others from the case, Trivedi said, “The lower court has discharged them for lack of evidence. It is a technical matter.”
“The people of Delhi have given him (Kejriwal) a political response on political grounds. The agency concerned will decide its next course of action on technical grounds,” the Rajya Sabha MP told a press conference at the BJP headquarters here.
He said the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will come up with a “structured response” on the issue after studying the court verdict in depth.
