Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal said some of his AAP MLAs have been threatened and offered bribes to break the government.
Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Saturday claimed that there has been a conspiracy to throw over his government and seven Aam Aadmi Party MLAs were offered ₹25 crore to join the Bharatiya Janata Party.
“Recently, they contacted our seven MLAs in Delhi and stated, ‘We will arrest Kejriwal after a few days. Following that, we will coerce the MLAs. Conversations have taken place with 21 MLAs, reaching out to others as well. Subsequently, we plan to overthrow the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi. You are also invited. We will offer ₹25 crore and support your candidacy on the BJP ticket,’” Arvind Kejriwal shared on social media X.”
“Although they claimed that 21 MLAs have been approached, but as per our information, they has contacted only seven MLAs so far and all of them have refused (to join the BJP),” Kejriwal added.
Kejriwal added that this means that “I am not being arrested to investigate any liquor scam but they are conspiring to topple the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi”.
“In the last nine years, they hatched many conspiracies to topple our government. But they did not get any success. God and the people always supported us. All our MLAs are also strongly together. This time also these people will fail in their nefarious intentions,” the Delhi chief minister claimed.
Kejriwal said “these people” know how much work his government has done for the people of Delhi. “Despite all the obstacles created by them, we have accomplished so much. The people of Delhi love AAP immensely. Therefore, it is not in their power to defeat the AAP in the elections. So they want to topple the government by arresting them on the pretext of a fake liquor scam,” the AAP national convener said.
