'Mr Kejriwal, you are corrupt': BJP


Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal reaped what he sowed, the BJP said on Thursday. BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra also slammed protests by AAP leaders and supporters following their leader's arrest, and said the drama amounts to a "celebration of corruption".

Neither people nor courts will accept this, Patra said, adding, "Mr Kejriwal, you are corrupt. People of Delhi and people of India know you are corrupt." Noting that Kejriwal was served many summonses by the Enforcement Directorate, the BJP leader said the arrest has followed a protracted course of action.

Reiterating the BJP's charges against the Delhi chief minister, Patra asked why the Kejriwal government gave the excise policy its nod without the approval of its Cabinet and then scrapped it overnight. "Cartelisation was allowed, liquor manufacturers were allowed in wholesale and black-listed firms were allowed in the business at a huge cost to the exchequer," the BJP spokesperson alleged.

He is reaping what he showed, Patra said. "It is but natural that if you have evaded the law of the land, ultimately the law will catch up with you," he said.
