Two opposition leaders, two states, and fresh political battles over probe agencies. Former Delhi minister Satyendar Jain has been arrested by the Delhi Anti-Corruption Branch along with five others in an alleged Delhi Jal Board tender corruption case. AAP has linked the arrest to the upcoming Punjab polls, while the BJP has welcomed the action. Meanwhile, the Enforcement Directorate has searched multiple locations linked to jailed Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan, his trust and Mohammad Ali Jauhar University over an alleged money trail involving government contract funds. Akhilesh Yadav has accused the BJP of political targeting, while the BJP says agencies are investigating alleged financial irregularities. The question: law enforcement or selective political targeting?
