WhatsApp campaign started by Delhi CM's wife to obtain support for AAP leader

New Delhi: Sunita, the wife of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, started a WhatsApp campaign on Friday asking people to support her husband, who is being held by the ED on suspicion of money laundering related to an excise policy.

Sunita Kejriwal said her husband has taken on the "most corrupt and dictatorial forces" in the nation during a digital media briefing. She requested people for blessings and prayers for him, PTI reported.

Issuing a WhatsApp number -- 8297324624 -- she said people can send their blessings, prayers or any other messages to the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor and she will communicate those to him.

Kejriwal was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on March 21 in the money-laundering case linked to the now-scrapped excise policy for Delhi.

A court on Thursday extended his ED custody till April 1.
