NDTV
Mr Kejriwal appeared before the CBI on Sunday for questioning in connection to alleged irregularities in the framing and implementation of the Delhi excise policy.
Delhi Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Virendra Sachdeva drew a comparison between Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and murdered gangster Atiq Ahmed and said that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader spoke a language similar to the latter.
Notably, Mr Kejriwal appeared before the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Sunday for questioning in connection to the case pertaining to alleged irregularities in the framing and implementation of the excise policy of the Union Territory government.
Whereas gangster-turned-politician Atiq Ahmed and his brother, Ashraf Ahmed, were killed while being taken for a medical examination in Uttar Pradesh's Prayagraj on Saturday night. Atiq was accused in the 2005 Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) MLA Raju Pal murder case and also in the Umesh Pal murder case which happened in February this year.
While talking to ANI, Delhi BJP chief Mr Sachdeva said, "Kejriwal today is speaking the same language as gangster Atiq, trying to avoid the questions of the investigating agencies by giving arguments like him. Why were Rs 144 crores waived off of the liquor mafia?"
