NEW DELHI: The war of words between the Aam Aadmi and the BJP over the arrest of AAP ministers is intensifying. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has come up alleging that the Centre is plotting to arrest Delhi deputy CM Manish Sisodia on corruption charges. The Chief Minister's allegation comes after the arrest of Health Minister Satyendra Jain. Kejriwal also urged the Prime Minister to imprison all AAP ministers and MLAs in one go.
"I had already announced a few months back that the Central government is going to arrest Satyendar Jain in a fake case. Reliable sources have suggested to me that Manish Sisodia is going to be arrested soon, centre has ordered all agencies to form fake cases against him," Kejriwal said during a press conference.
"I request PM Modi to put all the ministers and MLAs from AAP behind the bars and ask all the central agencies to do all investigations at a go. Do as many raids as you want. You arrest one minister at a time, it obstructs public works," he added.
"I am asking the 18 lakh children who are benefiting due to Manish Sisodia's activities in the field of education. Is Manish Sisodia corrupt? Should someone who does good to the country be arrested or should he be honoured?" Kejriwal asked.
