BJP trying to topple Delhi govt, charges Kejriwal; may sue chief minister, says BJP
Kejriwal on Saturday posted on X that seven of his party MLAs had been contacted by "them" and warned that he would be arrested soon. "Recently they (BJP) have contacted our 7 MLAs of Delhi and said 'We will arrest Kejriwal after a few days and then break the MLAs. Talks have been held with 21 MLAs, and we are talking to others as well. After that we will topple the Aam Aadmi Party government in Delhi. You should also come. Will give ₹25 crore and field you as BJP candidate in election'. Although they claim that they have contacted 21 MLAs, as per our information they have contacted only 7 MLAs so far and all of them (7 MLAs) declined the offer," Kejriwal said in the post.
Addressing a press conference, leader of opposition in Delhi assembly Ramvir Singh Bidhuri demanded that Kejriwal should provide evidence of the allegations he levelled or resign a CM. He added the BJP was exploring legal options to sue him for defamation.
