Amid Bihar Political Crisis, Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal Accuses BJP Of Horse Trading In Delhi

Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday leveled allegations of attempt of horse-trading against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Kejriwal said the BJP is trying to buy seven AAP MLAs, offering each of them ₹25 crore, in an attempt to undermine his government.

Taking it to Twitter, Arvind Kejriwal said BJP is trying to poach AAP legislators and threatening them. CM also added that the BJP is creating pressure stating ED will soon arrest Kejriwal in the Delhi liquor policy case, so MLAs' should think about themselves. The alleged conversation involved a sinister plan to topple the AAP government in Delhi.

"Recently, they (BJP) has contacted 7 of our MLAs of Delhi and said - 'We will arrest Kejriwal after a few days. After that, we will break the MLAs. Talks have been held with 21 MLAs. Talking to others also. After that, we will topple the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi. You can also come. Will give Rs 25 crore and contest the elections on BJP ticket,' Arvind Kejriwal said on Twitter.

पिछले दिनों इन्होंने हमारे दिल्ली के 7 MLAs को संपर्क कर कहा है - “कुछ दिन बाद केजरीवाल को गिरफ़्तार कर लेंगे। उसके बाद MLAs को तोड़ेंगे। 21 MLAs से बात हो गयी है। औरों से भी बात कर रहे हैं। उसके बाद दिल्ली में आम आदमी पार्टी की सरकार गिरा देंगे। आप भी आ जाओ। 25 करोड़ रुपये देंगे…

Hitting out at the saffron front, Delhi CM said, "This means that I am not being arrested to investigate any liquor scam but they are conspiring to topple the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi."

Kejriwal further said that in the last nine years, they have tried every possible conspiracy to dismantle Delhi's elected government. But god is with AAP, BJP never succeeded. "God and the people of Delhi have always backed Aam Aadmi Party."

Kejriwal also made it clear that all his MLAs are intact.
