Threats don't scare me.
I am ready to sacrifice my life for the country.
I have challenged all the powerful and corrupt people of our country.
So, I have no fear of death.
I have decided to sacrifice my life for the country.
Arvind why did you choose to travel by train?
Hi, how are you doing?
Hello Sir.
Hello, how are you?
Corruption will fall, with Kejriwal... Kejriwal... Kejriwal...
Who should be our leader, Kejriwal should be our leader.
Slowly... slowly... please be careful.
Move aside please, let the car go.
Come move, get aside.
Please take one picture for me.
Please move aside
Hail Lord Shiva, the destroyer of all troubles. Hail Lord Shiva, the destroyer of all troubles.
Sir please stay there and don't move.
Madan, move the camera aside. Please brother move it out.
Kejriwal was born on the same day as Lord Krishna
Instead of calling him Arvind, his family addressed him as Lord Krishna.
They used to say Lord Krishna is born in their house
From the beginning he had a religious mindset.
When he joined I can't say because many kids come to me.
and we teach all of them.
Sometimes you get attached to some kids or the kids get attached to you.
because they are little different from other kids
they could be different for many reasons
So, Arvind Kejriwal was also one of them
In the class he was very quiet, kind, serious...
down to earth, responsible...
I don't remember if I ever had to scold him or he complained to me about others. This never happened.
He has strong will power. Once he decides to do anything, he makes sure to complete it.
And, from the beginning, he was attracted to social work.
Do you think he can honor his promises in such short time?
Yes he will. He did not join politics for power. He joined politics to serve the people.
So, he will fulfill all his promises. Just give him sometime, he will prove it to everyone.
See, he has become the C.M. in a year!
I know Arvind since 1999, we met at a Kargil event as the coverage by foreign media was biased.
So, I was looking for some partners and I got to know about him and we met.
So, he participated in the protest and later we formed an activist organization called Parivartan.
Anti corruption in governance was Arvind's main focus.
He worked on this issue and gave results also.
The journey was very long, and we all know where he has reached now.
We joined hands in 2006, when Parivartan was active
Later, an NGO, PCRF was registered.
During that time we started RTI awards, for people from across the nation, who were doing a good job in this field.
We used to coordinate with them to use and display their RTIs and pursue in offices.
Initially, we raised an issue against Income tax department for income tax refunds
and sometimes we held sit ins outside Income Tax Office.
People were afflicted by the corruption of Delhi Vidyut board, the electricity board
so, we used to put up a table and chair, and sat outside their office to
As a result 2 districts, Mayur Vihar and Sunder Nagri turned corruption free.
At that time we felt this man is very genuine and down to earth
he would sit anywhere comfortably like the railway platform while traveling by train...
or spread a bedsheet and sit down if there was no place to sit.
In 2006-2007 we started working on our concerns for self-governance.
Is self-governance needed for good governance?
So, Arvind's book Swaraj that you read now...
the work on 'Swaraj' began then in 2007
How much money was laundered in the alleys of Sunder Nagri?
How much money was allocated in the alleys of Sunder Nagri?
How much money was allocated to the alleys of Sunder Nagri?
I worked on domestic violence cases with Action India.
So, Arvind went to their office and said that he wants to work for the poor people.
So, they asked him where does he want to work? He said Sunder Nagri.
So, Arvind said Kalavati I need one field worker.
I told him if you bring any English speaking, educated person from outside he won't understand the poor.
who knows ground reality and can easily understand the people.
He asked me to suggest someone, so I told him about my daughter Santosh.
So, I introduced him to Santosh, he took an interview for 2 minutes and then Santosh started working with Parivartan.
How old was she then?
She was seventeen years old then.
Then he founded the party, and I didn't know... Santosh told me, Arvind sir will live in our colony for 15 days.
I said it's great, and while he was here he did the hunger strike for 15 days.
They send us the bill every time but if she doesn't pay the bill they don't cut her connection.
My neighboring aunt said we must ask Sheila Dixit to use the fan instead of the air-conditioner, then she will realize our pain.
You have air conditioners even in your toilets, whereas our meals cost only Rupees 4/-
Poor people manage in Rupees 4/- but you cannot manage in Rupees forty thousand.
The strength is dedicated to all the ten lac fifty two thousand two hundred and two people,
this is as per last night's data and it is increasing by the day and will continue this way.
This is dedicated to the families, may God give them strength to fight these malpractices and corruption.
She misused the electricity, fuel and water money...
Queen Sheila is very canny.
She misused the electricity, fuel and water money...
Queen Sheila is very canny.
She misused the electricity, fuel and water money... Queen Sheila is very canny.
She misused the electricity, fuel and water money...
We won't pay...we won't pay... We won't pay the electricity bill
We won't pay...we won't pay...
Long Live the common man!
We won't pay the electricity bill
We won't pay...
I liked Arvind when I met him, so we decided to work together...
I felt that the people of this group are good and they want to work for the betterment of the country.
And they have a true desire to fight against corruption, so I will do my best to support them.
The honorable Chief Justice,
Chairman and Trustees of Ramon Magsaysay Award Foundation...
distinguished guests, fellow awardees and dear friends
I bring greetings from India, the world's largest democracy.
ordinarily, my own credentials would not stand up to the scrutiny of this group,
but I take heart from the fact that I stand here today...
not on my own achievements but as a representative of the movement...
for the People's Right to Information, which is thriving and growing in India.
This award does not belong to me, it belongs to entire Right to Information movement in India
Friends this will not be a political party, it will be a movement
What should be the name of this party?
Please give us some suggestions.
And, the other important thing for the entire movement is...
we need a huge army of volunteers
All those who want to be volunteers for our party, please make sure you write to us.
Our email address is...
indiaagainstcorruption.2010@gmail.com
Friends, I think this our last chance
Post, Jai Prakash Movement, we have got this opportunity after 30 years.
If we lose this opportunity, I don't think we will ever get another chance in my lifetime
Either we win or we lose, but we cannot miss this opportunity.
So, I request the country's each and every movement,
all organizations and associations
to accept my invite as I call them to be a part of this movement.
and especially request the youth and college students
to take as many leaves as possible for them and participate in the movement.
I was in Chandigarh, when the Anna movement had started
And after the movement when the party was formed, someone approached me and asked me to meet Arvind.
There is great potential here, so all your dreams to fix the country and politics can be fulfilled.
This was in the year 2012.
At, my first meeting with Arvind by chance Mr. Punya Prasun Bajpai was also there
The first question Arvind asked me was, what can I do for the country.
I said sir a lot of people come to meet you and want to join the party.
But there is no one to attend to them
Hence I want whoever visits the Aam Aadmi Party office must stay with us forever...
and contribute for the country, via this party.
Since then I was stationed at the Kaushambi office
and in a short span of time we made a great team.
People stood in long queues to take the party's membership.
Did you ever hear that people are standing in queues to take membership of a political party?
I remember a Sikh volunteer who came from Chattarpur
I got to know later that he was in the business of manufacturing locks and keys.
And 3 months before the elections, he borrowed money to manage his home expenses
around Rupees twenty five thousand.
he gave this money to his kids and told them not to bother him for 3 months.
He told them to manage with this money as he wanted to work for the party.
He is Dr. Munish Raizada and he was working in Canada, but he shut down his clinic and came here.
Many people from America, Canada, France, Hong Kong, Singapore...
have left their jobs and have come here.
I have been doing a road show since one month
One day, during the road show, a poor man came to me...
he took out all the money from his pocket and placed it in my pocket.
He said, he wants to contribute his earnings of Rupees 30 to the party...
and contributed his earnings of Rupees 30 to the party.
Friends, this election is contested by that rickshaw puller
This election is contested by Vijay Baba who rides a rickshaw.
For the past 6 months he rode his rickshaw only for the party and not for money.
He never took any money from the party.
I'll give you an example of a boy from Mahendergarh who was a journalist
He did a lot of work during Delhi elections.
He told me that he wants to work for Arvind
he joined our team and did a lot of work.
After we won 28 seats in the elections, one day he requested to meet Arvind.
I asked him, why do you want to meet Arvind?
We were the ones stopping him.
He said to me, Paramjeet ji now I am thinking that...
Right now, I am talking about Arvind's good quality!
He said, he had decided to leave his job and dedicate all his time for Arvind ji
I told him to stick to his job and asked him, why do you want to meet Arvind?
I already knew what would happen with him inside, but he insisted.
Bibhav was also standing there, so I told him to let this boy inside to meet Arvind.
So they opened the gate for him and he met Arvind.
As he came out he gave his resignation.
I am going back to Mahendergarh
I asked him what happened?
I warned you and told you not to meet.
He said, Paramjeet ji I simply told him...
about me and the work I did for him.
and I want to dedicate my entire life for the party
So he asked, what should have Arvind replied to this?
He should have replied, no worries or that's great etc...
But instead, Arvind called him rude and yelled at him...
and said what was the need to meet me then Get out from here and work to change the country.
Please leave and change the country.
He realized his mistake and said, I was going to leave my job for this man!
He said I was ready to dedicate my entire life for him
but he is abusing me and saying that I am doing it for the country and not for him.
He said, this man ha no courtesy to meet his people.
I said it is not your fault, he showed his real face as there are no spectators here.
And since then I have not seen that man around.
Many people who left their jobs and everything else,
were tricked and told, that you're doing it for the country and not for me.
Today, all those people have gone back home.
All those have seen Arvind closely, have gone back home.
Everyone continuously coming up with some or the other complain,
that the system within the party is not right and wrong people are controlling it
and, there is somewhat discrimination as well.
So, I was worried if in the initial phase people within the party are not right...
and if wrong people join the party, it will cause a problem in future.
I stayed in Benaras and contributed for the elections
but I had decided that after the completion of this election...
I will keep my points, and give it to Arvind in writing
because many times I said the same thing to him verbally.
So, from Benaras, I wrote a letter to Arvind.
I mailed it to him and I was expecting a reply
But when he didn't reply to my letter, I shared it with all the other leaders.
This is not swaraj.
This is a low grade and shameful act...
it is selfishness...
And to justify their selfishness,
some volunteers come and say, swaraj concept is not being followed.
If I give you a ticket then you will find swaraj, but if I don't give it to you, there is no Swaraj.
Your definition of swaraj is great.
You have ruined the concept of swaraj.
This is not swaraj...
This is an extremely low level of selfishness.
I want to clearly say this...
please think deeply, and if you are eager for a ticket, leave the party right now.
You have joined the wrong party then, go join BJP or Congress.
all these people have sacrificed their families for the party.
There is no swaraj, but do you even deserve swaraj?
Some of you people have turned swaraj into a buffoonery.
When he sent me a show cause notice, I gave my explanation and clarified everything.
But I was very sure, he is doing all this as a mere formality.
And that's exactly what happened. next day he did a Google Hangout.
The disciplinary committee found Karan Singh
doing activities against our party...
and as the founder of Avam, he is sending fake messages
that they are collaborating with BJP, which is unacceptable.
Hence last week, the disciplinary committee expelled Karan Singh from the party...
and also announced that if anyone is associated with Avam, strict action will be taken against them.
So, I felt that instead of arguing with them, we will keep our point in front of the volunteers...
and we decided to protest by adopting Gandhi's method so that they will realise their mistake.
So, our protest went on for 48 days at Jantar-Mantar
we kept a fast and named it as Maun Vrat
So, we will not talk and do a silent protest to convey our message.
But in 49 days, he sent his men at Jantar-Mantar, who tried to do a fake sting operation
they tried to portray that outsiders from BJP paid us to do this.
But they were Satyendra Jain's people, and I also mentioned all this in my police complaint.
What was the result of the police complaint?
There were 2 issues in the police complain, one was about the SMS, which is still going on.
So, no one was arrested?
I didn't get any decision yet. They did not arrest him also. We tried to do everything possible.
I realized that for political issues, the judges have no pressure, as big lawyers don't get involved in it.
They keep delaying it and don't give a decision. Up till now, 2-3 judges have changed in this case.
I remember 2-3 things which Karan told me. I can't remember every incident.
Yes.
The first thing he said was that the accusation on him, for sending the SMS is a lie.
And, Karan Singh was 100% correct about this.
Prashant ji had mentioned this in the disciplinary committee
and we too wrote about this and informed the party.
An insider supported him in this and in fact, this was our complain that Karan Singh was falsely trapped.
And, this is criminal. How can you do this?
I certainly raised my voice in the party against this injustice.
There is no High-command here.
A high-command selects the candidates whilst sitting in an air-conditioned room.
The public will select the candidates.
Here the manifesto won't be made and announced, while sitting in an air-conditioned room.
All things that he opposed like he won't live in a big bungalow...
won't have V.I.P. security, won't have nepotism within the party.
Instead we will give the opportunity to common people.
he by passed all these things.
Arvind himself asked, how can the common man enter politics?
I want to pave that path
But when tickets for the lower house of the parliament and the assembly were distributed...
People came stacked with documents and signatures
and gave names of their supporters
What did Arvind Kejriwal say to me?
Mayank Gandhi and others will tell you this. He said this to me in the executive meeting."See Shazia, we both know,
that we'll give a ticket to whomever we want,, so let them keep sending their documents."
He had no intentions to do it and this is another betrayal which no talks about.
I am saying this because I know a gentleman from Vasant Vihar who gave his house for this job.
And, I had arranged that office for Aam Aadmi party.
That office was only being used for one work which is, when people come with their details...
and support of 500 people from their constituency with voter cards.
So, he used that database to reach out to them and used these people who bought tons of documents
which no one bothered to read or understand, and they only wanted to fool these people.
When Tomar became a minister, the first question I raised was how can Tomar be a minister?
when the list of 67 MLAs came out, many people deserved to be a minister.
among those names was that of Adarsh Shastri who had held senior positions in Google.
And those who had worked for big organizations, he was Lal Bahadur Shastri's grandson and he had a great profile.
And then Saurabh Bharadwaj who had a proven track record as a minister
And some boys and girls of our movement who were in our party as well.
Like Sanjeev...
Sanjeev Jha.
Sanjeev Jha, Sarita who won the first time
I felt these people should get the opportunity.
These kids were traditionally known to us, like Gulab Singh from Matiala.
All these people were there and I felt they should get the opportunity.
Whereas, Tomar left congress some time ago and came to us.
So, I asked, "But why Tomar?"
"We should not give this position to Tomar. Instead, we can give him some other work in the ministry department."
Arvind tried to convince me, that we have to give it to at least one influential caste person Rajput.
I said if you want to argue please do, but at least don't sound foolish.
because Delhiites don't want one upper caste Thakur, Tradesmen Baniya, or Priest caste Brahmin as it does not matter.
And, if you want an upper caste Thakur, what is the problem with Manish Sisodia, even he is a Thakur.
Will you get a higher caste Thakur, bigger than him in your party?
He denied everything and said, Sanjay had promised it to him.
And he wanted to honor Sanjay's promise.
So, I further asked, if there is a quota for all party ministers?
So, can I also make one promise?
Arvind kept his arm on my shoulder and said, that he is the Chief Minister from my quota.
So, I let it go but as soon as he had to join the Board of Ministers his opponents sent some papers.
I asked for those papers but Arvind said he has checked the papers.
Fake degree.
And the papers are fine. I asked how did they get them checked?
So, he said Bibhav is from Bihar and we found out through him that the papers are fine.
So, I trusted them. But later the controversy increased and we got to know that the court arrested him.
When the dispute was in its final stages, I felt that something will go wrong.
You will be surprised to know but this is the first time I am saying it on TV.
I sent one boy from my office at my cost, to Patna as he was from Bihar
And took 2 local boys and investigated this.
The Vice-Chancellor of Bhagalpur University knew me as I had done an event there.
So, through him, I approached the other university, spoke to them and found the truth.
I got to know that this matter is suspicious. It is legally suspicious.
So, I told Arvind that things can go wrong and he held his head and sat down.
This was in the Secretariat, in C.M. office, where he was sitting alone and thinking what will happen next.
I said it will be really bad, and better than losing respect send him away.
He said he asked Manish to speak to him, but he was not ready to leave.
I asked, should I talk to him? He said, why not?
So, behind the C.M. chamber, there is another personal chamber...
I called Jeetendra Tomar there.
He was a minister but he respected me then and even today. He is a nice hard working man.
I don't know about the fake degree controversy, but otherwise he is a decent man who gave attention to the public.
I told him, "Jeetendra we are in trouble and this is a serious matter." so he said one good thing
He said you'll make me a minister so the post is not a problem, but if you feel...
He must have analyzed the problem he got into. So, he asked me how to get out of this, to maintain his dignity.
So, I gave him a political solution.
I told him to write a resignation stating that BJP has accused you of submitting fake degrees
which is baseless as you said, and since it is causing disgrace to your party and to your C.M.,
so until you get rid of this accusation, you will not resume the ministry post.
Get this case sorted, get daily hearings, get working on this case to come out clean.
I promise I'll tell Arvind to give you a better post.
He agreed and wrote whatever I said on a paper
He signed it and I sent it. I told him not to tell anybody and asked him to wait as I will call him back in 30 minutes.
I went to Arvind's chamber and gave him the letter. Arvind said, "Sir you did a great job."
Immediately Sanjay Singh arrived and asked what's happening.
Arvind said, sir today Kumar did a great job.
He said it's not possible and took the resignation letter, read it and criticized it.
"Tomorrow BJP will ask you to resign by asking someone to accuse you.
Later they will ask Manish to resign. Will we keep resigning as per their wish?
Politics cannot be done with fear, You are the C.M you need to be courageous." But now Arvind was confused.
I said, Sanjay this is not right. You know he live me for one and a half year.
Brother you don't understand politics, you are an emotional poet. This is regular thing in politics.
What if tomorrow they bring someone and accuse you?
That you took extra money and didn't recite any poetry, so will you quit?
Arvind said, Sanjay is right. But I said, I think he is wrong
Sanjay said, "Call Jeetendra here."
They called him he was scared and he entered the room.
He sat down. Sanjay said, "Don't worry, you continue being a minister
My brother Kumar is and emotional man." Everyone said okay, then we drank tea and left.
Later he went to jail,
and when he was in police custody, Durgesh got a resignation letter written by him
They asked Durgesh to go and bring the resignation letter.
In 2013 I met Arvind ji during Raksha Bandhan festival.
So, he told me that he wants a Punjabi contender for Kalkaji seat and Jungpura.
So, I said but we didn't come here to do this.
We have so many workers who are CAs, doctors who left their jobs
and they were asked to leave their jobs, like Gaurav from Kalkaji
and he is a prominent name and also Mr. Kailash Jain
I was disappointed so I told him Arvind ji all this is not right.
He asked me his caste?
Which caste does he belong to?
I don't know, because when I started working as a volunteer I never asked Rita ji which state are you from.
The first women meeting was organized at my home, which was recorded and Arvind saw it live.
But then I felt this is the wrong path.
And he said, Ranju ji please support us this time as our fight is against powerful forces...
but next time this will not happen.
So, I was really disheartened.
We have to rightly make India a secular country.
Today every party talks about secularism.
but these parties instigate the Hindus and Muslims to fight.
Our office is in Sunder Nagri which is a slum colony of Delhi.
There Hindus and Muslim live together
with brotherhood, love and affection.
I visit many Muslim brothers' homes, during Eid festival
And on Diwali they come to our house.
When the Muslims came, I feel that by then the movement had gained popularity
And by then people like Sanjay Singh started thinking about politics because he was the head hound of politics.
who was expelled from the Samajwadi party, I don't know.
So, they had made up their mind to bring one eunuch, one Muslim, one priest etc...
May be his team had planned all these tasks, after the popularity of the movement.
Otherwise earlier no one thought about it, and I don't think even Arvind would do this
because the 2 years that I worked with him, I never saw him doing anything wrong
which I could object, and even they couldn't think about it as they never thought the movement could become so famous.
After the Anna Hazare movement when the Aam Aadmi party was formed
and Arvind decided to contest in the elections, we never thought we would get anything the first time.
And the first names announced were of Manish Sisodia and mine.
I had nothing to do with R.K. Puram
They surely sent me to R.K.Puram, but Durgesh Pathak who mostly ill- treated me...
some ugly words that I can't use
And, in fact I'll say it in English
In a public place they were 3 men who called me a Muslim bitch in Hindi.
And, I was shocked so I asked them to go, and many other workers said, don't say this about our sister Shazia.
I was so upset. those 3 people were very close to Durgesh Pathak
and 2 days later they were found in Arvind Kejriwal's rally.
When I went to Lucknow many people, like the Maulana from Firangi Mahal and many other Muslim groups
and even from Ajmer Sharif, Bareilly and other places. Arvind wanted me to introduce him to these people.
I said I can introduce you to these groups, I am not just a Muslim, I am an Indian
I have been a journalist for so many years, so I introduced him to many big celebrities, who were parliamentarians then.
Arvind was very clever. He told me to ask for their support. I said they are saying that you don't speak against BJP.
He said tell me what to say? I will say it.
So, he was very clever, so I told him to say it. He said he will do it today, and he spoke against them.
He asked what to say? They asked him to speak against Yeddyurappa, so that day Arvind mentioned Yeddyurappa
I want to tell you that he flips within 2 minutes, because I have witnessed it myself that
when he goes to Muslim areas he tells me to talk about Batla House.
and he altered the same speech changed when he went to other areas. So, I found this strange.
And it was so surprising that sometimes he said, these people sit in air-conditioned rooms and make the laws.
I said we also just came out from an air conditioned room.
Arvind said, leave it.
Get ready for the lower house elections, you have to contest from Raebareli.
I said I don't want to contest from Raebareli.
So, Arvind didn't like it when I refused.
I said, see my experience of R.K. Puram was bad, at least I need to know that place.
I will not do it just to prove a point.
So he said, we will support you completely.
I thought indeed, so I spoke to Sanjay Singh, Arvind Kejriwal and Kumar. All said they will support me.
I said fine, these people are from Ghaziabad and area-wise it is the second-largest constituency.
But that time was so horrible, I have no words to express it.
See the politics he did then, he sidelined me from my team
See it is my choice where I want to go, and I do go to all temples and mosques.
but they made an excuse that they have some work and they took me away from my team
They called the media there and told me to anoint and pray.
I said my people are waiting, so let me go. I had no issues with it
I consider myself to be secular, and I respect every religious place.
I will go to the church, temples and mosques. Yes, I am a Muslim, but I am also an Indian, a Muslim and a woman.
And I am very proud of it.
But Mr. Munish, the way they did this in front of the media
and the next day I went to Muslim areas and they distributed pamphlets, so in 2 minutes I found out they were his people.
My team from R.k. Puram told me that this man was is Manish's brother in law and was with them
His name is Sanjay Janeja.
So, he was sitting there with the man who was distributing pamphlets.
So, they distributed those pamphlets in Urdu.
They gave the material to Urdu newspapers and distributed it and the same with Hindi clippings.
They planned everything, as they thought I'll get all Muslim votes and someone else thought I'll get Hindu votes.
And I got to hear many other things
One of our friend named Rishi Chauhan, who lives in a slum area.
I met him during the protest.
In the protest, he used to carry the tricolor flag and he came walking from R.K Puram till here.
So, when I spoke to him he told me, that he was associated since long.
For by-elections my friends suggested Rishi Chauhan's came by elections.
In 2015 elections, 2 seats got vacant. One from 2013 and one from 2015.
In 2015 when they gave a ticket to money beast, they said they were forced due to circumstances and gave many more reasons
I said no problem.
He came from the other party.
Yes before that.The fun fact is, now when you spoke about the other party, they gave a ticket to his wife.
She is a nice woman, she didn't have much role. She was just the face.
They were contesting from BJP in 2013.
In 2013, we raided their place for illicit alcohol, and in 2015 they were given the ticket and I was told to ask votes for him!
I said sorry, I don't know about you, but I have lived in R.K. Puram for 30 years
I have some respect. Fine, you give away Munirka's seat, but Rishi Chauhan wants to contest elections in Nanakpura.
I asked them to give him a ticket, so they said 2 things in reply
Both were very shameful.
He said, from where will he bring money?
I said sir, in 2013 when we fought elections, you didn't give me any money. I collected lacs from my area and gave you.
And then Shazia contested the elections
So, can't we help him to contested the elections.
And the second shameful thing he said.
Who said?
Their Delhi state wing president Dilip Pandey ji said it.
he said I have no control. I am saying, whatever my seniors ask me to tell you.
I said please tell me.
he was conscious and embarrassed. He said this is a general seat
And Mr. Rishi is from reserved category.
and it won't be right to give a general category seat to someone from the reserved category.
I found that even more shameful.
I said now only Rishi Chauhan will contest from there
Whether you give a ticket or not, Rishi will contest election from there
And if you have the courage, then win and show me.
You were talking about Rishi, but now I challenge you to take the seat from Munirka
and the best part is I wanted to show them the mirror so I told him that,
"I am not so angry, that now BJP and Congress will become good for me.
But I am upset with you." Now if you see in Munirka
In Munirka the MLA gave up his seat, but his relative got the ticket, his house, village, community...
government and the C.M., Deputy C.M., and Sanjay Singh held public meetings there,
They assigned campaigning to party workers from 10 other assemblies and we had only 17 workers
but they created such an atmosphere that he could not win the seat, but still, they didn't learn anything.
If they had seen the mirror that I showed them, they would have understood.
I would have accepted, that they made a mistake and now rectified it
But one thing was clear that it was not a mistake, their intentions were bad and they didn't plan to improve.
They are out of control and have chosen the wrong path.
It was a tourism related activity and the event was held in Delhi’s Pragati Grounds.
So, when Mehbooba Mufti came there I asked her, "Do you consider Burhan Wani and Afzal Guru as terrorists or not?"
"Can terrorism and tourism be done together?" I asked this question...
and because a Delhi government minister questioned Mehbooba Mufti, it immediately caught media attention.
So, this news was there on all channels.
and within 5 minutes, I got a call from Arvind Kejriwal and told me not to ever ask or talk about this question
and not to say anything about Afzal guru as the Muslims get angry.
And I said I have 35 thousand voters in my constituency and no one considers Afzal Guru as his role model.
In our country or Delhi there is no Muslim who will get angry if we talk about Afzal Guru and this is the truth.
Why can't we ask questions about a terrorists?
But he immediately told me, not to say such things.
And he disconnected the call and 5 minutes later he sent his P.A. to me.
he got down from the car and I was leaving Pragati Grounds, he checked my phone
and asked if I had recorded the call with Arvind ji. I said,"I don't record any calls."
He said, they just felt that he said something, and if it gets recorded, things can go wrong.
K.P.S Gill former State D.G.P. says that Aam Aadmi party, the new entrant in state politics
is providing a platform to radical Sikh diaspora, settled abroad to create a big base from which to operate.
Punjab elections, Kejriwal accused of spending a night at an ex-terrorists' house.
AAP's Khalistan connection exposed again.
New photo shows banned international, Sikh youth federation, chief operative Gurdial Singh.
Gurdial Singh worked for AAP's Garhshankar MLA, Jai Krishan Singh Rodi during assembly elections.
There was a misreading of the Punjab electorate
By Aam Aadmi Party
Definitely so they were people and I have said this multiple times that in Punjab
the extreme right wing faction which is right of right, has no takers.
and, if there a re takers that is Akali dal's committed vote
they make get angry with the Akali dal and stick a rebellion, but electorally the separatist agenda in Punjab is dead.
And, if you even have a conversation with somebody, who is a one-man army
then you are playing into the narrative that the BJP wants you to play into, that you are national security.
Donkey hoarding, which means if you talk to those people
who earlier as well as now have sentiments for Khalistan, they are very few, doctor.
I am from Malwa, Fatehgarh Sahib which is where my village is, and nobody cares
The concept of Khalistan is probably attractive as a Utopian idea
to .000000001 percent.
And this is one excuse, that BJP wanted to say, that see they support Khalistan.
Khalistan does not exist on ground, that is a separate matter.
I said see these people, I mean Punjab doesn't care about this
And, even if they do this is not your constituency but at that time sitting in Delhi appeared
that there is a strong religious sentiment in Punjab.
See, Punjab is religious place but the average Punjabi does not identify with the idea of...
religious politics.
