The Congress’s sharp attack on Kejriwal came on a day the AAP leader furnished the bail bond in a criminal defamation complaint filed against him by Nitin Gadkari, changing his earlier stand against it. “Kejriwal is resorting to low level politics. His going to jail was pure drama to gain political mileage. It was not a moral issue as claimed by him. Agreeing to furnish bail bond in the case proved that he was resorting to theatrics,” chief spokesperson of Delhi Congress Mukesh Sharma said.
The Congress leader said the party would soon launch a door-to-door campaign to expose the AAP leader who has been ‘misleading the poor people’ of the city. “He has done all his to grab power again in Delhi. People have realised his intention and that is why nobody had protested against his arrest. We thank Delhiites for not supporting him,” said Sharma.
A Delhi court on Tuesday ordered Kejriwal’s release from Tihar Jail after he furnished the bail bond. Earlier in the day, the high court suggested Kejriwal to furnish a bail bond and get released from the jail.
