"Just in: Income Tax raid on Chhatarpur MLA Kartar Singh Tanwar. Modiji had unleashed Central Bureau of Investigation, Anti-Corruption Bureau, Delhi Police earlier, now IT too, Aam Aadmi Party won't bow down, won't bend," AAP's Dilip Pandey said in a tweet.

"Disheartened by past performance, Modiji seems to be improving his strike rate now. Almost an AAP MLA everyday, to keep democratic principles away," the leader said in another tweet.

"Are so many consistent attacks on AAP justified? Are all the criminals of the country in the AAP?" Mr Singh asked.

The raid on Mr Tanwar's residence will add fuel to the already bitter political war between the AAP and the Modi government.
