CM Kejriwal: Delhi first to be attacked, warns of ‘similar ordinance’ in other states

Arvind Kejriwal addresses "Maha Rally" at Ramlila Maidan

New Delhi: Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Bharatiya Janata Party, describing the Centre's ordinance on control over administrative services in the national capital as "Hitlerism and dictatorship".

He said Delhi is the first to be "attacked" and similar ordinances will also be brought for other states.

Addressing the Aam Aadmi Party's "Maha Rally" at the Ramlila Maidan, the party's national convener said the Centre's ordinance was an insult to the people of the city. The ordinance says that there will be no democracy in Delhi, he alleged.

"There will be dictatorship in Delhi and the LG (Lieutenant Governor) is supreme. People can vote for whoever they want, but the Centre will run Delhi," Kejriwal said. (with Agency inputs)
