Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday took a jibe at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and called him a “shameless person” for not resigning after going to jail.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The official X handle of the office of Amit Shah, in a series of tweets, targeted Arvind Kejriwal and quoted the Union Home Minister as saying, “I have never seen a shameless person like Kejriwal. Laluji (Former Bihar CM Lalu Prasad Yadav) went to jail after resigning due to corruption. Jayalalithaa (former Tamil Nadu CM Jayaram Jayalalithaa) went to jail after resigning and other ministers also went to jail after resigning. He is one such leader who went to jail but did not leave the post of Chief Minister.”
Amit Shah attacked Aam Aadmi Party national convener while addressing a public rally in South Delhi as he campaigned for BJP’s party candidate Ramvir Singh Bidhuri.
Claiming that the BJP will win all seven seats in Delhi, Shah said, “Kejriwal ji, you are sitting on the chair after sticking Fevicol on it. BJP is going to win all seven seats on the 4th. This fevicol will come off.”
Attacking the Delhi government sarcastically, Shah said, “This Kejriwal government is a 3G government. The first G is for scams, the second G is for bribery, and the third G for fraud.”
He added, “Kejriwal, who called himself a staunchly honest man, is today walking on the path of staunch dishonesty.”
In another post, the X handle of the Office of Amit Shah quoted the Home Minister speaking about the eight scams of Delhi Chief Minister, which includes Rs 2,875 crore liquor scam, Rs 78 thousand crore water board scam, Rs 5 thousand crore classroom construction scam, Rs 1000 crore fake medicine scam, Rs 4 thousand crore lab X-ray scam, Rs 1,850 crore panic button scam in vehicles, Rs 1000 crore bus purchase scam, and Sheeshmahal worth Rs 125 crore.
Shah said, “Kejriwal ji, only the liquor scam has been investigated so far, investigation of seven scams is still pending.”
