In difficult times, Sanjeev Arora chose jail over joining BJP: Arvind Kejriwal

Sanjeev Arora’s work in bringing industrial investment to Punjab is being praised everywhere: Manish Sisodia

By arresting hardworking & visionary leader, BJP has betrayed Punjab’s trust, development & future: Manish Sisodia

Punjabis know how to teach lesson not just to those who betray them, but even to those who betray others, BJP will learn that too: Manish Sisodia

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has declared the arrest of Punjab Cabinet Minister Sanjeev Arora in a false case as an attack on Punjab’s trust, development and future. As the Enforcement Directorate (ED) action intensified, AAP leaders led by National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab Prabhari Manish Sisodia hailed Sanjeev Arora for refusing to join BJP despite pressure, while praising him as a key face of Punjab’s industrial and urban transformation push.

AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal took to ‘X’ and wrote, “A person’s true character is revealed during difficult times. Sanjeev Arora chose to go to jail rather than join BJP. Salute to Sanjeev Arora’s courage.”

Meanwhile, senior AAP leader and Punjab Prabhari Manish Sisodia stated, “Sanjeev Arora is a leader who is not only honest and hardworking, but also has a clear vision, deep understanding and a passion for change for Punjab. After becoming a minister, the seriousness and speed with which he worked to bring industrial investment to Punjab is being discussed everywhere today. Ask any entrepreneur in Punjab, and you will hardly find anyone who does not praise Sanjeev Arora’s industrial policy and his way of working.”

Highlighting Sanjeev Arora’s urban development initiatives, he emphasised, “He began large scale work to make cities clean and well organised. He continuously worked towards illuminating cities with street lights, organising the tangled network of electricity wires spread across roads and streets, and building modern urban infrastructure. Recently, the responsibility of implementing Punjab CM Bhagwant Singh Mann’s ambitious scheme to underground exposed electricity wires spread across villages and fields was also being carried out by Sanjeev Arora with complete dedication and commitment.”

Targeting BJP over the arrest, Manish Sisodia asserted, “When BJP arrests such a hardworking, result oriented and visionary leader in false cases, then it no longer remains a matter of merely harassing one leader. It becomes a betrayal of the trust of Punjab’s people, Punjab’s development and Punjab’s future. And Punjabis know how to teach a lesson not only to those who betray them, but even to those who betray others.”
