In a press conference held earlier today, Kejriwal stated that Sisodia’s arrest was a conspiracy by those who are opposed to the good work being done by the Delhi government in the field of education.
We are providing good education to the children of Delhi, which is making a huge difference in their lives. But there are some anti-national powers who do not want this to happen. They are using all their resources to stop us, including arresting our Education Minister, Kejriwal said.
He further added, Manish Sisodia has been sent to jail because of his efforts to provide good education to the children of Delhi. This is an injustice that we will not tolerate. We will fight against this conspiracy with all our might.

The alleged misappropriation of funds in the construction of classrooms in Delhi government schools was brought to light by the Delhi Police last year. It was alleged that Sisodia, along with some other officials, had siphoned off funds meant for the construction of classrooms in various schools in Delhi.
Sisodia, however, had denied the allegations and had claimed that they were politically motivated. The Delhi government had also initiated an internal inquiry into the matter and had found no evidence of wrongdoing.
The arrest of Sisodia has sparked protests in various parts of Delhi, with supporters of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), the party to which both Kejriwal and Sisodia belong, taking to the streets to demand his release.

Meanwhile, the Delhi Police has stated that Sisodia’s arrest was made after due process of law and that they have concrete evidence to support their case. The case has now been handed over to the court for further proceedings. The outcome of the case is expected to have a significant impact on the political landscape of Delhi, especially in the run-up to the upcoming assembly elections.
