"अगला नंबर योगी का...": Kejriwal Breaks Silence Over Arrest In His First Campaign Speech | AAP

Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, recently granted bail in the Delhi excise policy case, launched a scathing attack on the BJP-led central government. He accused the government of attempting to crush his Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) by targeting its top leaders for arrest. Speaking at the AAP headquarters in Delhi, Kejriwal warned that if the BJP returned to power, all opposition leaders would face imprisonment. Despite his time in jail, Kejriwal explained that he did not resign from his post as he believes in fighting against authoritarianism and upholding democracy. He also expressed his determination to continue the battle for democracy, stating that even other leaders like Hemant Soren shouldn't have resigned. Kejriwal's remarks come amid escalating political tensions ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, where he predicts the BJP will secure around 220 seats. #KejriwalPressConference #AAP #BJP #LSPolls2024 #ArvindKejriwalBail #Delhi #ArvindKejriwal #HanumanTemple #ConnaughPlace #AAPnews #AamAadmiParty #Punjab #LokSabhaElections #LokSabhanews #Kejriwalnews #Oneinda #Oneindianews ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.102~
