CM Kejriwal mocks BJP: 'They would send ED-CBI even to Lord Ram....'

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has often mentioned Lord Ram during his public speeches in past. Recently, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener, referred to Lord Ram to target the BJP-ruled NDA government. While speaking at the Delhi Assembly over the 2024-25 budget of the AAP, Kejriwal said that if Lord Ram existed in this era, the ruling party would send the ED and the CBI to his home too.  

"If Lord Ram existed in this era, they (BJP) would send the ED and the CBI to his home too and asked him at gunpoint whether he wanted to go to the BJP or jail," said the AAP convener in a no holds barred attack on the saffron party.

Drawing contrast in AAP and the BJP's work, Kejriwal said that the AAP government is moving ahead with a model of ‘Vikas’ (development), whereas the BJP is following the model of ‘Vinash’ (destruction) by toppling opposition parties' governments in different states.

His reference to ED and CBI in his ‘Lord Ram’ remark was a direct attempt to question the multiple summons issued by the ED. Citing these, eight summons issued to him, Delhi CM claimed that the plan was prepared by the BJP to arrest him and topple his government.

Kejriwal's remark didn't sink well with the BJP as the Leader of Opposition in the Delhi Assembly, Ramvir Singh Bidhuri, condemned Kejriwal and urged him to refrain from making such comments that may let people question his faith and devotion towards Lord Ram.
