AAP’s Stand Against Injustice Amid Kejriwal’s Arrest – No Holi Celebration. “Holi embodies the triumph of good over evil, of justice over cruelty. Today, every AAP leader is engaged in this battle against evil, cruelty, and injustice. This year, we have decided not to partake in the festivities,” Atishi conveyed in a statement.

होली सिर्फ़ एक त्योहार नहीं, बल्कि बुराई के ऊपर अच्छाई की जीत का प्रतीक है, क्रूरता के ऊपर इंसाफ़ का प्रतीक है।

आज, आम आदमी पार्टी का हर नेता दिन रात इसी बुराई, क्रूरता और नाइंसाफ़ी से लड़ रहा है। इस साल आम आदमी पार्टी ने संकल्प किया है कि हम रंगों से नहीं खेलेंगे, होली नहीं…

Implicitly criticizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi for allegedly undermining democracy, Atishi emphasized, “The ruthless dictator has incarcerated our beloved Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. Their relentless efforts to erode democracy from our country are evident. I implore all of you to join us in this fight against cruelty and evil.”

She underscored the rally’s broader purpose, stating, “This rally is not just to support Arvind Kejriwal but to safeguard democracy. Opposition leaders are being targeted and incarcerated. Sitting chief ministers are being jailed before elections. Our democratic values are under threat.”

Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge condemned Kejriwal’s arrest as a ploy to weaken opposition forces ahead of the Lok Sabha elections. The developments surrounding Kejriwal’s detention underscore a broader concern for the preservation of democracy in India, Atishi asserted, urging citizens to unite in defense of constitutional principles.
