BY A STAFF REPORTER: A day after Sanjay Singh's bail, AAP leader and Delhi Minister Saurabh Bharadwaj on Wednesday alleged that BJP's New Delhi Candidate Bansuri Swaraj is on the list of ED lawyers.

Saurabh Bharadwaj added to the allegations of the Enforcement Directorate working with the BJP against the opposition. He stated that a three-judge bench led by Justice Sanjiv Khanna warned ED against opposing the bail as they will write a decision on it comprising merits, and facts that are against ED. He also claimed that the ED failed to present any evidence against Sanjay Singh.

He further claimed that BJP leader Bansuri Swaraj is mentioned in the list of ED lawyers which proves that ED has partnered with the BJP.
