Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, recently granted bail in the Delhi excise policy case, launched a scathing attack on the BJP-led central government. He accused the government of attempting to crush his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) by targeting its top leaders for arrest. Speaking at the AAP headquarters in Delhi, Kejriwal warned that if the BJP returned to power, all opposition leaders would face imprisonment. Despite his time in jail, Kejriwal explained that he did not resign from his post as he believes in fighting against authoritarianism and upholding democracy. He also expressed his determination to continue the battle for democracy, stating that even other leaders like Hemant Soren shouldn't have resigned. Kejriwal's remarks come amid escalating political tensions ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, where he predicts the BJP will secure around 220 seats.

Top Congress leaders, including the party president Mallikarjun Kharge, former president Sonia Gandhi, held a rally in Jaipur on Saturday, April 6, to publicly launch its election manifesto 'Nyay Patra'. The Jaipur public rally comes a day after the Congress released its manifesto for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls promising a legal guarantee for MSP, and passing a constitutional amendment to raise the 50 per cent cap on reservations for SCs, STs and OBCs among others. The release of the manifesto 'Nyay Patra' was announced by Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, expressing happiness and pride in her mother Sonia Gandhi's presence in Rajasthan after becoming a member of the Rajya Sabha. Unemployment, claimed to be at its peak, was criticised, with allegations made against the BJP and Modi government for failing to address the issue adequately. The Agniveer scheme, accused of shattering people's hopes, was mentioned, along with concerns raised about leaked papers in various states and the ongoing protests by farmers, suggesting that PM Modi is unwilling to heed their grievances.
