<p>When Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in the alleged excise policy scam on March 21, it sparked a wave of unifying condemnation across the ranks and file of India's Opposition parties banded together as 'INDIA' bloc to deny PM Modi a third term in power.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Ten days later, on March 31, 2024 — to purportedly 'save democracy' — the Opposition did a show of unity at Delhi's historic Ramlila Maidan, the same venue where over a decade ago, Kejriwal under the leadership of social activist Anna Hazare, had led an anti-corruption campaign against the then-ruling United Progressive Alliance government led by Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh.&nbsp;</p>
