Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said his Delhi counterpart Arvind Kejriwal effectively invited his own arrest by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) due to his repeated failure to respond to summonses, suggesting that it might have been a tactic to garner political sympathy, reported news agency PTI.

Sarma emphasised that when a person disregards nine summonses from the ED, it indicates a deliberate invitation for arrest.
