The Patiala House Court of Delhi has granted a 45-day extension to the Special Cell of Delhi Police to complete the investigation into the Parliament Security Breach case, registered under stringent sections of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA).

This comes a day after Crime Branch officials served a notice to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, asking him to reply within three days in a probe into his claims that the BJP attempted to poach seven AAP MLAs.

Kejriwal assured that ongoing development work will not stop even if he is sent to jail. Delhi government will continue to work towards enriching the education and healthcare sectors.

The backdrop of these events lies in the recent allegations made by AAP, asserting that the BJP had offered Rs 25 crore each to seven of its MLAs to defect from the party, coupled with threats to topple the Kejriwal government.
