When he is imprisoned, the proportion will increase to 6%. " Mr. Kejriwal made the declaration as preparations were underway for the impending assembly elections in Gujarat, the home state of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Digital Desk: Delhi's Chief Minister,
Arvind Kejriwal, lambasted the BJP today in response to the CBI's inquiry of
his deputy, Manish Sisodia, saying it was an effort by the federal government
to undermine the Aam Aadmi Party that would ultimately backfire.
"After the Manish Sisodia raid, AAP's vote share climbed by
4% in Gujarat. When he is imprisoned, the proportion will increase to 6%.
" Mr. Kejriwal made the declaration as preparations were underway for the
impending assembly elections in Gujarat, the home state of Prime Minister
Narendra Modi.
"We introduced a motion of confidence [in the Delhi
assembly] today to demonstrate the futility of Operation Lotus. None of our
MLAs has shifted allegiances "Mr. Kejriwal used the phrase, which is
frequently used by the opposition to refer to sabotage by the BJP, whose
election emblem is a lotus, to make his point.
AAP
MLAs made up 59 of the total 62 who were present for the vote of confidence.
Two of the three missing are away from home, and the third, Satyendar Jain, is
incarcerated. A total of 58 MLAs, including the Speaker herself, supported the
motion for confidence.
Mr.
Kejriwal highlighted the efforts made by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)
administration to enhance state-run schools in the capital.
"My
two kids attended IIT for their education (Indian Institute of Technology). I
want to provide every child in India the same education " he said.
The
Kejriwal administration has struggled with how to fund government school
infrastructure because the BJP, the opposition party, has claimed that the AAP
has merely made cosmetic improvements to schools while doing little else.
The hard-core honest party has those with good educations and
legitimate IIT degrees, but the completely corrupt party lacks educated
individuals, according to Mr. Kejriwal.
The Arvind Kejriwal administration is accused by the BJP of
engaging in a "school scam" by inflating the price of school
reconstruction and misusing funding. The party claims that the AAP
administration made false promises to build 500 new schools that were never
ever built.
