Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal moved a confidence motion in the assembly on Friday. The discussion on the motion will take place on Saturday.

Speaking in the assembly, Kejriwal claimed that the BJP is trying to topple their government by trying to imprison Aam Aadmi Party in the liquor excise policy case.  

"We can see that parties are being broken & governments are being toppled in other states by slapping false cases. In Delhi, they intend to arrest AAP leaders under the pretext of a liquor policy case. They want to topple the Delhi Government because they know that they can never win the election in Delhi," he said.

"To show the people that none of our MLAs broke away and all of them are intact, I present a Confidence Motion," he added.

The Aam Aadmi Party has 62 seats in the 70-seat assembly. The move comes after the Enforcement Directorate sent a sixth summons to the Delhi chief minister in the state liquor excise policy scam case.
