The two have been arrested on charges of allegedly donating the money to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s party through a demand draft on March 31, 2014.
Mukesh Sharma is a property dealer and tobacco trader based in Delhi.
It may be recalled that sacked Delhi minister and now a BJP leader Kapil Mishra had earlier alleged that the amount was paid to AAP by a shell company.
Mishra had also alleged "massive irregularities" in the funding of the AAP and raised questions about the "suspicious" donation of Rs 2 crore.
He had also claimed that several shell companies had given money to the AAP and the party knew it.
