BJP Leader Gaurav Bhatia Criticizes Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal After Supreme Court Grants Bail
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Gaurav Bhatia took a jibe at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, calling him a ‘bail wala’ CM after the Supreme Court granted him bail in a corruption case related to the excise policy scam.
Speaking at a press conference, Bhatia said, “The Supreme Court has shown a mirror to ‘kattar beimaan’ AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal once again… He has got conditional bail… The ‘jail wala’ CM is now a ‘bail wala’ CM.”
Bhatia criticized Kejriwal for not resigning despite allegations and accused him of lacking morality. He said, “The most important is that Arvind Kejriwal CM should resign as per the voice of the people of Delhi… But he will not do that because he does not have even a drop of morality… He used to say that a politician should resign even if there is an allegation. And now he is out on bail, he was in jail for 6 months, but he is not resigning… Bhrashtrachaar yukt, CM abhiyukt… Now, he is in the category of an accused.”
Bhatia also slammed the AAP for celebrating the bail order, stating that Kejriwal has not been acquitted. He said, “Arvind Kejriwal never got relief from any court and no charges have been quashed… He has not been discharged… There is no question of acquittal because the trial will continue… The AAP has to answer why Arvind Kejriwal is not resigning… The BJP has zero tolerance against corruption… The corrupt Arvind Kejriwal will bow down one day and the people will take the resignation from him.”
Kejriwal was arrested by the ED on March 21, 2024, in connection with a money laundering probe relating to alleged irregularities in the now-cancelled Delhi excise policy 2021-22. On June 26, 2024, AAP Chief Arvind Kejriwal was arrested by CBI while he was in custody of the Enforcement Directorate in the excise case.
