The CBI raid on AAP leader Durgesh Pathak’s residence occurred just days after the party appointed him as the co-incharge for the Gujarat elections. This timing raised suspicions within the AAP, which strongly criticized the move, alleging that it was politically motivated. The party claimed that the BJP, feeling threatened by AAP’s growing influence in Gujarat, used government agencies to intimidate and undermine the party’s leadership. Sandeep Pathak, the national general secretary of AAP, also voiced concerns, stating that the raid was part of the BJP’s efforts to sabotage AAP’s rise in Gujarat by resorting to “dirty tricks.”
