Sunita Roadshow: ‘Arvind Kejriwal Is A Sher, Nobody Can Break Him’

New Delhi: More than five weeks after being arrested by Enforcement Directorate, Arvind Kejriwal has not received any relief from the courts.

However, the jailed Delhi chief minister continues to get full support from his party and wife Sunit Kejriwal, who seems to have taken over the responsibility to keep spirits high within Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).

In her first Lok Sabha election roadshow on Saturday, in support of AAP’s East Delhi candidate Kuldeep Kumar, Sunita called her husband a ‘sher’ (lion) and said that nobody can break him.

“For one month, they have forcefully put your chief minister and my husband in jail. No court has convicted him so far. They are saying that an investigation is ongoing. If the investigation goes on for 10 years, will they keep him in jail for 10 years? Earlier, people were jailed only after the court convicted someone, but they have brought a new system and are saying that they will keep him in jail till the investigation is ongoing. This is dictatorship,” said Sunita, standing through the sunroof of a vehicle and addressing the crowd.

“Kejriwal was jailed because he built schools, provided free electricity and opened Mohalla Clinics… We will vote to remove dictatorship and save democracy,” Sunita said.

She reiterated AAP’s claim that Kejriwal has been denied insulin in Tihar jail despite being a diabetic for 22 years.

“He has been denied insulin in jail… Do they want to kill Arvind Kejriwal? I know that you people love him and that’s their problem. What is his fault?” she questioned.

Sunita will be campaigning for AAP candidates in South Delhi and New Delhi constituencies, as well as in Gujarat, Haryana and Punjab.
