Rajan gone, Swamy takes aim at Arvind Kejriwal, vows to ‘expose’ him

Subramanian-Swamy-1New Delhi: BJP leader Subramanian Swamy on Sunday joined his colleague Mahesh Giri’s hunger strike outside Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s home over the M M Khan murder case and said he would now focus on exposing him.

Swamy, who had been advocating for the ouster of RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan, said since Rajan has decided to step down, he can now focus his attention on Arvind Kejriwal.

“All his life he (Kejriwal) has done fraud. He says he was a meritorious student in IIT but I have records of how he got admission… which I will reveal in a press conference. Till now, I was Rajan ke peechhe (was going after Raghuram Rajan) and he is now gone,” Swamy said.

Meanwhile, Arvind Kejriwal demanded that Mahesh Giri be arrested in connection with the murder of NDMC official M M Khan even as he accused the Prime Minister of “shielding” him.

The BJP MP had asked Kejriwal to either prove his charge against him or ‘resign’ from the post of chief minister.

In a tweet, Kejriwal demanded that Giri should be arrested. “He shud be arrested n interrogated by Modi police in MM Khan murder case. Modi police shielding him,” he said.

Kejriwal, in a letter to Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung, had accused him of trying to “save” Giri and New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) vice-chairman Karan Singh Tanwar in Khan’s murder.

Giri had asked Kejriwal for a public debate over his allegations.

In a letter to Kejriwal on June 16, Giri had invited him to the Constitution Club to produce “evidence” he had against him in the M M Khan murder case on Sunday 4 PM.

Kejriwal did not accept the challenge following which Giri, accompanied by his party supporters, reached the Chief Minister’s flagstaff Road residence and sat on hunger strike.

Khan, an estate officer of NDMC, was shot dead in Jamia Nagar on May 16, a day before he was scheduled to pass the final order on the lease terms of a hotel which was functioning on a property leased out by the civic body.

Subramanian Swamy demanded the Delhi government should be dismissed if Arvind Kejriwal refuses to apologise to the party MP over his allegations in the recent murder of an NDMC official.

Swamy also attacked Lt Governor Najeeb Jung for “failing” to protect MPs from attack by “his government” and accused him of seeking guidance from Congress chief Sonia Gandhi’s political secretary Ahmed Patel.

“Delhi government will survive if Kejriwal apologises… government should be dismissed in national interest,” he said.
