Manish Sisodia, Deputy Chief Minister of Delhi, has alleged the Bhartiya Janta Party of proposing an idea to split the Aam Aadmi Party on Monday. He claimed that it was a quid pro quo following the CBI probe into the now withdrawn excuse policy.
In his tweet today, Sisodia stated in Hindi that he had received an invitation from the BJP to join them by dissolving the AAP in exchange for the closure of the CBI and ED charges against him.
“My reply to the BJP is – I am a descendant of Maharana Pratap, a Rajput. I will cut off my head but will not bow down to the corrupt and those who conspire. All the cases against me are false. Do what you want to do,” Sisodia tweeted.
The CBI searched Sisodia’s official residence last week and conducted raids at a number of locations in relation to the alleged corruption in the execution of Delhi’s Excise Policy.
The AAP has stated the allegations are politically motivated.
In a tweet in Hindi today, Kejriwal said: “The rupee is falling, people are troubled by inflation, unemployment is at a high, and these people are playing ‘CBI-ED’, and are busy toppling governments chosen by the people and exchanging abuses and barbs the entire day.”
“Who do people talk to about their issues and whom should they go to? How will the nation progress like this?” the Delhi chief minister tweeted.
