Overview

  • Addressing AAP MLAs and councillors in Delhi, he said five senior AAP figures were jailed in "fabricated" cases while no member of the Gandhi family was arrested in the Herald probe.
  • He linked his charge to recent ED action at Delhi AAP chief Saurabh Bharadwaj’s home, alleging intimidation and quoting Bharadwaj as telling officers to arrest him if they wished.
  • He described the National Herald matter as an "open-and-shut" case and claimed earlier scandals including 2G and coal were quietly closed.
  • Congress dismissed the allegation, with Delhi unit president Devender Yadav accusing Kejriwal of furthering a BJP-driven conspiracy.
  • He paired the claims with criticism of Delhi’s current administration over power cuts, higher private school fees, broken roads, sewer issues and slum demolitions.
