New Delhi: A day after Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s ED remand was extended till April 1, his wife Sunita Kejriwal on Friday announced a WhatsApp campaign, ‘Kejriwal ko Aashirwad’.
In a video message, she shared a WhatsApp number urging people to send their wishes to the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor.
She commended her husband’s defence in court and called him a true patriot. “The way he put his stand in court requires lot of courage,” said Sunita, who was present during the court proceedings at Delhi’s Rouse Avenue court on Thursday.
She further said that her husband has confronted the most corrupt and dictatorial forces. “He has not been keeping well. His sugar levels are fluctuating. He is being harassed a lot. This tyranny won’t last and people will give a reply,” Sunita told reporters.
In another significant development, United Nations (UN) joined issue with India over the Delhi CM’s arrest by ED on March 21 in an excise policy-linked money-laundering case. “What we very much hope that in India, as in any country that is having elections, that everyone’s rights are protected, including political and civil rights, and everyone is able to vote in an atmosphere that is free and fair,” spokesperson for UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres Stephane Dujarric.
He was responding to a question on “political unrest” in India ahead of general elections and in the wake of Kejriwal’s arrest and freezing of Congress party’s bank accounts.
This came a day after India deemed Washington’s request for fairness in legal cases involving opposition parties as “unwarranted” and “unacceptable”.
