New Delhi: Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal hit out at Narendra Modi on Thursday hours after Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) colleague and former Cabinet minister Satyendar Jain was injured in Tihar Jail.

“The person who was working day and night to provide good treatment and good health to the public… today a dictator is bent on killing that good person. That dictator has only one thought — to finish everyone, he lives only in ‘I’. He only wants to see himself,” a furious Kejriwal tweeted, obviously referring to Indian Prime Minister.

“God is watching all, He will do justice to all,” he further wrote.

Jain, accused of money laundering and lodged in Tihar since May 2022, was rushed to Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital this morning after falling in a prison washroom.

Jain was thereafter shifted to Lok Nayak Jai Prakash (LNJP) Hospital and put on oxygen support in ICU.

According to Delhi’s Director General (Prisons) Sanjay Baniwal, Jain had been kept under observation for general weakness in the jail hospital, and had slipped and fallen in the bathroom.

“He was examined by doctors (at Tihar Jail) … they found his vitals normal. He was referred to Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital as he complained about pain in his back, left leg and shoulder. According to doctors there (at the hospital), his condition is stable, and he is out of danger,” Baniwal said.

Three days ago, Jain was taken to Safdarjung Hospital after he complained of ill health.
