AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal Sunday blamed the Prime Minister Narendra Modi for letting down the people by not honourig the bifurcation promise to accord ‘specia category status’ (SCS) to Andhra Pradesh. He also described Modi government as the “most corrupt” the people had witnessed since Independence. Added to it is the Modi and BJP chief Amit Shah combination “ruined” the country in the last five years.
Addressing a rally here along with TDP president and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, he claimed that Modi-Shah duo “divided India on religious lines” in five years, what Pakistan could not do in 70.
The rally was also attended by Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee.
“We have come here to appeal to you to vote for Chandrababu Naidu again. He has laid the foundations of a modern Andhra Pradesh. If he gets five years more, he will expedite the process,” Kejriwal said.
The Delhi chief minister alleged that an emergency-like situation is prevailing in the country.
“The Modi government unleashed central agencies on our institutions and our people. They (Modi and Shah) have ruined the country in five years. Pitted one caste against another and one community versus another. PM Modi led the most corrupt government in the last 70 years,” he claimed.
Referring to BJP MP Sakshi Maharaj’s recent remark that the upcoming Lok Sabha polls will be fought in the name of the country and there will be no elections after that, Kejriwal said, “Hitler changed the constitution of Germany and ruled till his death. Modi, Shah would do the same. Sakshi Maharaj said there will be no election after 2019. I appeal to you with folded hand, please remove Modi (from power),” he told the gathering.
