Delhi Chief Minister Aitishi may be arrested: Arvind Kejriwal

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday said Delhi Chief Minister Aitishi may be arrested in "fake case related to free bus rides for women".

He added that the BJP is trying to distract (AAP) from poll campaign. "As per sources, recently there was a meeting between CBI, ED & I-T and they have been asked to arrest CM Atishi by fabricating any false case against the CM," Kejriwal said.



He further blamed the BJP of doing no work in Delhi and said the saffron party demanded votes by abusing Kejriwal. He highlighted the schemes of the AAP government in Delhi.


"In the last ten years, the BJP has no work in Delhi. They are asking for votes only by criticising and abusing Kejriwal. But Aam Aadmi Party has a positive campaign based on the work done...We have announced the Mahila Samman Yojana and a scheme for free medical treatment of senior citizens. BJP is rattled by registrations for these schemes Delhi cabinet has already approved the Rs 1000 allowance and a notification has been issued."

Reacting to the case, Atishi said, "Arvind (Kejriwal) ji has said we have credible information that to stop free bus service for women in Delhi, an attempt is being made (by BJP) to impose a fake case on me....Even if they arrest me, I have faith in the legal system and the Constitution that despite their false cases on me, I will get bail."
