Several Aam Aadmi Party leaders, including Manish Sisodia and Sanjay Singh, criticised the BJP government, alleging that agencies are targeting those who oppose the ruling party. 

In a video on X, Khan said he has been responding to all notices from the agency, but a team arrived with a search warrant to arrest him. 

Sisodia claimed that the ED's only job is to suppress voices against the BJP and imprison those who resist. 
Singh alleged that the ED has no evidence against Khan and accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of dictatorship and the ED of hooliganism.
