Will See You In Hospital! Rahul Gandhi's Fresh Attack At Arvind Kejriwal Over Challenge To Drink Yamuna Water

In a contest that was earlier tagged as a direct fight between AAP and BJP, Congress made everyone feel its strong presence with scathing statements. First, Delhi Congress leader Sandip Dikshit left no chance to target Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal over his bungalow aka Sheeshmahal, and now, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi has locked horns over polluted Yamuna water.

During a political gathering in Chandni Chowk's Hauz Qazi Chowk, Rahul Gandhi showed a sample of water to state: "Arvind Kejriwal entered politics saying he will change the entire political system, and will finish corruption. He also promised that he would clean the Yamuna water within 5 years, and would take a dip in it but it is still dirty...I would ask him to drink it, we will meet in the hospital after that."

Rahul Gandhi also named Arvind Kejriwal's "core team" Manish Sisodia, Atishi, Sanjay Singh, Raghav Chaddha, Satyendra Jain to say that they are similar to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

"These 9 people are Kejriwal's core team, I am reading the names, Kejriwal, his partner Sisodia, Atishi, Sanjay Singh, Raghav Chadha, Sandeep Pathak, Satendra Jain, Avad Ojha, how many of these people are in the 90%? No one from the Dalit OBC, or Muslim community is there...they make their team and when there is a riot anywhere, they disappear."

"There is no difference between Kejriwal and Modi, Modi speaks openly, Kejriwal remains silent, and does not come when needed," he added.

He also accused AAP of having double standards and spreading hatred.

Polling for Delhi's 70 assembly seats will take place in a single phase on February 5, and counting of votes will be done on February 8.
