Kejriwal Slams Modi: AAP and JMM Triumph Despite Political Attacks

Arvind Kejriwal criticized PM Modi for being 'anti-tribal' and accused him of trying to dismantle elected AAP and JMM governments. He rebuked BJP's remarks and rallied support by urging voters to oust Modi for protecting the Constitution and tribal rights.

Labelling Prime Minister Narendra Modi as ''anti-tribal'' who put the ''tallest tribal leader of the country'' behind the bars, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday accused him of plotting to topple elected governments of AAP and JMM.

He also launched a scathing attack on the BJP and its spokesperson Sambit Patra for remarks that ''Lord Jagannath is Modi's devotee'' and urged people to ''crush their arrogance''.

''PM Modi plotted to finish AAP and JMM but we got stronger and he could not topple Delhi, Punjab, Jharkhand governments,'' Kejriwal said while addressing an election rally here.

''The PM put all his forces to keep me in the jail but I am a devotee of Bajrangbali and a miracle happened. I am on bail... soon Hemant Soren, whom he has kept in the jail, will be out... Soren's wife Kalpana is challenging Modi like 'Jhansi ki Rani'. No court has found Hemant Soren or Arvind Kejriwal guilty... it is nothing but PM Modi's 'gundagardi','' Kejriwal alleged.

Alleging that ''PM Modi hates tribals'', the AAP supremo appealed to electors not to vote for the BJP as it would amount to betrayal with Jharkhand and the tribals.

''If you press the button with lotus symbol (of BJP), Hemant Soren will remain in jail,'' he said.

Kejriwal urged people to ''remove PM Modi and save the nation'' because if Modi is re-elected ''the Constitution and reservations would stand destroyed''.
