Close on the heels of Delhi Assembly polls, newly elected national president of BJP, JP Nadda said that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is supporting those elements in JNU who want to break India for his vote-bank politics.
"Kanhaiya Kumar, Umar Khalid and other anti-India forces raised seditious slogans like 'Bharat tere tukde honge' in JNU. They were threatening to violate India's sovereignty. Law enforcement agencies moved in, investigated the matter and in Jan 2019 were ready to file chargesheet," tweeted Nadda.
"They sought Kejriwal's permission to prosecute this tukde tukde gang but one year later, till y'day, no permission was granted. Kejriwal must tell Delhi why is he supporting those who want to break India? Is it because acting against these anti-nationals will hurt his vote bank?" read his subsequent tweet.
Assembly elections in Delhi will take place on February 8 and votes will be counted on February 11.In 2015, Aam Aadmi Party got a landslide victory by winning 67 of the 70 Assembly seats in the national capital.
