Guj co-incharge Raghav will be arrested soon: Kejriwal

Saturday, 01 October 2022 | Staff Reporter | NEW DELHI

Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal said on Friday that there was a possibility that the party’s Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha would be arrested soon. “Ever since Raghav Chadha has been appointed as the co-incharge of Gujarat and he has started going for election campaigns in Gujarat, we are hearing that these people will also arrest him.

In which case they will do it and what will be the allegations, these people are making these up now,” he said in a tweet. Kejriwal, however, did not specify which agency was working on the alleged plan to arrest Chadha.

Kejriwal's assertion comes after the CBI arrested the party's media communications in-charge Vijay Nair in connection with the alleged Delhi Excise Policy "scam" on Tuesday. Responding to Kejriwal's tweet, Chadha said the BJP has lost its sleep seeing the progress of the AAP in Gujarat. “Gujarat is demanding change and every day the BJP has lost its sleep seeing the progress of the Aam Aadmi Party.

We are followers of Bhagat Singh. We are neither afraid of the walls of your jail nor of the noose," he said.

After Kejriwal's tweet, AAP Gujarat highlighted its earlier tweet stating that the “BJP was afraid after seeing the increasing popularity of the AAP in Gujarat and therefore they have been planning to arrest Chadha.”  Meanwhile, the Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia alleged that the BJP wanted to prevent its defeat in Gujarat by getting AAP leaders arrested, claiming that people of the State wanted to give their mandate to Kejriwal this time. "The BJP wasted 27 years of the people of Gujarat.

Neither did it open good schools nor hospitals (in the State). Be it youth wandering in search of jobs or farmers, cow keepers or rickshaw pullers, everyone now wants to give a chance to Arvind Kejriwal," Sisodia said in a tweet in Hindi following Kejriwal's assertion.
