Senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh on April 16 delivered a message from Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal who is currently lodged in Tihar Jail and quoted him to say “My name is Arvind Kejriwal, and I am not a terrorist.” He said that Mr. Kejriwal had sent this message to the people of the country, to the people of Delhi and to the people for whom he worked like a son and brother.
Mr. Singh, addressing a press conference, said that the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi are treating Mr. Kejriwal like a terrorist by making him speak to his family and Chief Minister of Punjab Bhagwant Mann through a glass wall to take revenge and break his spirit.
By keeping him under 24-hour CCTV surveillance, Mr. Modi is trying to demoralize him, and humiliate him and his family, and party leaders, Mr. Singh claimed. “I want to tell you Prime Minister, this is Arvind Kejriwal, he is a person made of sterner stuff. He pledged to serve the country by quitting his IRS job. When the issue of principle came up, he also resigned from the 49-day government. This is Arvind Kejriwal, if you make any attempt to break him, Mr. Kejriwal ji will become stronger and fight against you,” he said.
