Coming down heavily on the BJP, Aam Aadmi Party leader Arvind Kejriwal on Monday alleged that the ‘saffron party leaders’ were capable of ‘killing their own men to come to power’. Referring to a recent sting done by a news portal, he alleged that the 1992 Babri mosque demolition was a ‘planned act of sabotage’.
“The BJP also undertakes killings of the Hindus, children and their own cadres. They are not concerned about Hindus or Muslims. For coming to power, all are equal for them. We must understand this,” said Kejriwal, while speaking at a book launch Dahleez Par Dil co-authored by AAP spokesperson Dilip Pandey. The AAP leader, who was attacked a few times during roadshows, cautioned that attacks against him and his partymen will intensify in the future. “With money alone, we cannot fight with the powers against whom we have waged a war. We took on some of the biggest business houses and political parties of the country. We are not going to stay quiet. There will be more attacks on us. They (rival parties) are staying quiet because of elections, but after it gets over they will reveal their true colours,” he added.
Kejriwal further said that the media will be threatened if BJP comes to power. “I got some calls from senior editors. They say we have been getting calls from senior BJP leaders who are threatening them. Money is playing a role. People who don’t agree with money are being threatened,” he said.
