‘should kejriwal resign or not, if arrested’: aap to seek people’s opinion
New Delhi: The AAP is set to run a huge signature campaign to get public opinion on whether Arvind Kejriwal should resign from the position of Delhi’s Chief Minister if he is arrested under a “conspiracy by the BJP”, the AAP leader Gopal Rai said on Thursday. The signature campaign will run between December 1 to 20.
While addressing a press conference, Gopal Rai alleged that the BJP has hatched a conspiracy to get Arvind Kejriwal arrested under the “fake” liquor scam case with the hope of finishing the Aam Aadmi Party. Rai, along with party MP Raghav Chadhha held the press conference.
Under the “Mai Bhi Kejriwal’ campaign from Friday, AAP volunteers will carry pamphlets to get the signatures of the people at all the 2,600 polling stations across the city, asking for their opinion on whether Mr Kejriwal should step down as Delhi Chief Minister if he is arrested, he said.
Mr Rai said Arvind Kejriwal had met with AAP MLAs and councillors seeking their opinion on the issue and there was consensus that he should not resign and run the government from jail.
He said from December 21 to December 24, the AAP will hold ‘Jan Samvad’ in every ward of the city to discuss the alleged liquor scam with people as well as “the BJP’s conspiracy to get Arvind Kejriwal arrested and seek their opinion if he should resign as Delhi Chief Minister if arrested, Mr Rai added.
Earlier this month, the Enforcement Directorate had summoned Mr Kejriwal for questioning in a money laundering case linked to the alleged excise policy scam.
Mr Kejriwal skipped appearing before the Enforcement Directorate and demanded that it should withdraw its notice, claiming it was “illegal and politically motivated”.
