Why did the ED mention that bail to Kejriwal would end arrests of politicians
The ED mentioned that bail to Kejriwal would end arrests of politicians as elections are a year-round phenomenon in India.
- Providing bail to Kejriwal would set a precedent for other politicians facing similar charges during election seasons.
- Politicians may hesitate to engage in corrupt activities if they know they can be arrested and their bail denied during elections.
- The ED's statement suggests that arresting politicians during election periods could lead to allegations of bias or influencing election outcomes.
- Granting bail to Kejriwal could help maintain a level playing field during elections by avoiding disruption in the political process due to arrests and bail denials.
- Overall, the ED's concern is likely aimed at ensuring a fair and transparent electoral process without unnecessary interference or controversies related to arrests and bail procedures.
