"Arvind Kejriwal Arrested: Crackdown on Indian Opposition Spreads"

Indian law enforcement officials have arrested Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi and a prominent opposition leader, in an alleged money-laundering case, sparking accusations from his supporters that the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party is using federal investigative agencies to target political rivals ahead of the upcoming national elections. Kejriwal's party, the Aam Aadmi Party, has been accused of receiving millions of dollars from a liquor group, but Kejriwal denies any wrongdoing. The arrest comes amid increasing allegations of the BJP unfairly using federal agencies to pressure or jail political opponents, while a recent Supreme Court judgment revealed the BJP had received more than half of the roughly $2 billion in anonymous campaign contributions since 2018, raising concerns about the fairness of Indian elections.
