Even in jail, Kejriwal is clinging to his obsession of power: Anurag Thakur

• Why is Congress aligning with Kejriwal's corruption: Anurag Thakur

JAMMU: The Union Minister for Information and Broadcasting & Sports and Youth Affairs, Shri Anurag Singh Thakur was on a visit to Jammu and Kashmir today. During his stay in Udhampur, he participated in a bike rally and attended the organizational meeting at the BJP office (Udhampur). Later in the evening, Shri Anurag Thakur visited IIM Jammu followed by participating in the Vikas Bharat Ambassador program organized at the Radisson Blu Hotel.

Citing the example of RJD leader Lalu Prasad Yadav, Shri Anurag Thakur highlighted a parallel in the case of Arvind Kejriwal. Shri Thakur pointed out that during Lalu Yadav's involvement in the fodder scam, Rabri Devi used to speak on his behalf, eventually assuming his position, the same is happening in Kejriwal’s case. Kejriwal, once an advocate for morality and anti-corruption efforts, finds himself embroiled in corruption allegations today, with his party, the Aam Aadmi Party, deeply entangled.

Despite being in jail, Kejriwal's ambition for the CM position remains steadfast, with his corruption allegations breaking records. Furthermore, Shri Thakur criticized CM Mamata Banerjee, stating that despite being a woman herself, she has failed to safeguard women in her state and instead she is offering protection to corrupt individuals and rapists.

Shri Anurag Thakur further added, "Arvind Kejriwal used to say that I am against corruption and will not enter politics. However, he now finds himself and his Aam Aadmi Party entangled in the web of corruption. This is the same individual who once staged protests against the Congress. Today, Kejriwal and his party have plummeted into the depths of corruption, with their Deputy Chief Minister, Education Minister, Health Minister, MP, Councilor and now CM Kejriwal, the Kingpin of liquor scam himself behind the bars. His reign of anarchy and corruption has led him to this fate.

Targeting the Congress, Shri Anurag Thakur said, "Today, the Congress must introspect, have they sold their conscience too? Arvind Kejriwal earlier used to demand the arrest of Sonia Gandhi, but all the corrupt forces are in cahoots today. The question is what prompted this drastic change? Why is Congress aligning today with Kejriwal’s corruption? Where are the Congress leaders who, until recently, advocated for legal action in the liquor scam? Today, they are rallying in support of someone who has shattered all corruption records. Does Congress perceive Arvind Kejriwal as innocent?”
