AAP national spokesperson and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh said he will expose who the Centre is using central agencies like CBI, ED and others to topple the government in Delhi.
New Delhi: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday summoned a special session of the Assembly on Thursday amid claims of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) that the BJP is trying to topple the Delhi government by breaking the party.
Kejriwal’s call for a special session came hours after five AAP leaders held a press conference in the morning and alleged that party leaders are being offered money by the BJP to quit AAP and are being threatened of CBI probes.
The party’s national spokesperson and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh said he will expose who the Centre is using central agencies like CBI, ED and others to topple the government in Delhi. On the CBI and ED probe against senior AAP leader and minister Manish Sisodia, Singh said that the BJP tried to do a “Shinde” on him, referring to Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.

Singh added, “They (BJP) say take our offer of Rs 20 crore or face CBI cases like Sisodia.” He added that AAP leaders like Ajay Dutt, Sanjeev Jha, Somnath Bharati, and Kuldeep Kumar have been approached by the BJP. “All of them have been offered Rs 20 crore each if they join alone and Rs 25 crore if they bring along others,” Singh alleged.
Somnath Bharti said, “They (BJP) said they know cases against Manish Sisodia are fake but the senior leaders of BJP have decided to bring down the AAP. BJP’s leaders have been assigned to get AAP leaders to the saffron party’s fold.”
Singh challenged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led BJP government and further said, “You must have threatened and brought down governments in many states but this is Delhi. Here people have chosen Kejriwal thrice.”
In a tweet, Delhi Chief Minister and AAP’s national convenor Arvind Kejriwal had said, “This is a very serious matter. To take stock of the situation and to chalk out further strategy, a meeting of our party’s Political Affairs Committee has been called at my residence today at 4 pm.”
