The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has alleged that police raided its office in Ahmedabad Sunday, adding that the ruling BJP is "rattled" by the support it is getting in the run-up to Gujarat polls.
Reacting to the development, Arvind Kejriwal said the Gujarat police found nothing at the party office as the leaders and workers of the AAP are "hardcore honest".
"The BJP is extremely rattled by the immense support that the AAP is getting from the people of Gujarat. There is a storm in favour of the AAP in Gujarat," Arvind Kejriwal said in a tweet in Hindi.
"Raids have started in Gujarat too after Delhi. Nothing was found in Delhi, nothing was found in Gujarat too. We are hardcore honest and patriotic people," he added.
Earlier, AAP's Gujarat unit leader Isudan Gadhvi claimed on Twitter that police raided the party office and carried out searches for two hours, soon after Arvind Kejriwal arrived in Ahmedabad.
"Gujarat Police's raid at the Aam Aadmi Party's office as soon as Kejriwal arrived in Ahmedabad. Carried out searches for two hours and left. Nothing found. Said they will come again," Isudan Gadhvi said in a tweet in Hindi.
"The BJP is so scared with the growing popularity of the Aam Aadmi Party in Gujarat that now it is misusing power to get our office raided," the Gujarat unit of the AAP said in a tweet.
"After Delhi, now they have started getting raids conducted in Gujarat too. Be it Delhi or Gujarat, they are not going to find anything," it added.
The Gujarat Assembly polls are slated to be held later in the year.
