Why didn't Sonia, Modi campaign against each other? asks Kejriwal


Varanasi, Apr 29 (Agencies) : Launching a direct attack on Sonia Gandhi and Narendra Modi, Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday accused the duo of having a tacit pre-poll understanding. 

The Aam Aadmi Party chief asked why the Congress president and the BJP's prime ministerial candidate had refrained from campaigning in each other's constituencies. 

While Sonia is contesting the 2014 Lok Sabha polls from Rae Bareli in Uttar Pradesh, Modi is fighting from two seats — Vadodara in Gujarat and Varanasi in UP. Kejriwal himself is a candidate from Varanasi.


 
Taking up the Robert Vadra controversy, Kejriwal asked why has the BJP failed to register an FIR against Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law despite levelling allegations against him. 

"We registered five FIRs against Sheila Dikshit in 49 days. Why can't the BJP in Rajasthan register an FIR against Vadra?" he asked, as reported by a newspaper.

Questioning the Congress-led UPA government's sincerity, Kejriwal pointed out that the Centre had failed to arrest Modi in connection with the Snoopgate scandal. 

The AAP chief alleged that both the parties avoid taking action against top leaders of the other party.

    Mr.Dinesh Poojary,

    Appreciate your confidence of winning both the seats where Modi is contesting BUT do really Modi realise this fact ?If YES its clear picture of wasting public money.

    People who supports Modi wants him to contest from their constituency .Why Modi preferred Baroda and Varanasi only ? He does not want to fulfill his supporters wish at other part of the country?
    Modi spporters of 524 constituency of India wants him to fight election from their own constituency.Why Modi reject them?

    Modi will win both the constituency where he is contesting .This is your openion , BUT the question is why he preferred to contest in 2 places ? Do you think its not fear of loosing any one of them but to waste public money in the name of re election ???
    I am not getting the answer . Can you clarify ?

    One man has the courage to speak the truth and stand up to clean Indian politics. Most people commenting here look like are happy with the BJP/Congress revolving door show.

    Close to 24000 Crores has been spent on this election by business houses, to get their favorites elected. This is the root cause of corruption.

    What India needs is justice, fairness and rule of law.

    All this tamasha of development and mega projects, is about taking resources away from the common man and giving them to mega corporation at throw away prices, who have financed their campaign. If you see South America, this game has been played there for long. You have very rich people, mega projects and most people are very poor without any resources.

    When that happens you cry and if BJP in charge you get back congress, and if congress in charge you get back BJP.

    Change the direction of politics in India, without that India is doomed. This BJP/Congress game means Ambani/Adani/Birlas are firmly in charge.

    Arvind is a very smart IIT educated person. He could have made loads of money for himself. But instead he has taken this path of establishing an people's alternative to Indian politics, and has taken the courage to stand up to the source of corruption in India.

    Ask your selves this question. Where is the enormous amount of money that is being spent on this election comming from. The election commision lets each candiate spend only 70 lakhs. Candidates from the leading parties seem to be spending close to 50 crore on an avergae. Do you think these people are going to serve yoru interests over those of the ones who have financed them ?

    INC and BJP are practicing conventional politics, therefore so far in spite of monumental crimes no politician of stature has gone to jail. That is the reason why they never passed any law against themselves contrary there are preventions to try any office of governance. In spite of AAP's efforts to educate the voters many of them can think only in conventional style and make all sorts of loose comments about Aravind Kejariwal.

    Everyone saw what Kejriwal was capable of during his short time as CM of Delhi. He is unfit to govern and can only be a road side agitator. He suffers from delusions of grandeur and is a megalomaniac. He only makes hit and run attempts with no substance. He may be a God to front benchers for for all the rest he is just a big zero. His minister Somnath Bharati is a prime example of bringing rowdyism into administration and the foolish and communal outbursts of Shazia Iilmi reveal the actual content of AAP politics and policies. Time has come to sweep them away with their own brooms.

    politicians oppose in paper but do not clash in person. every one them have compromising agenda under the table. birds of same feather flock together. Indirectly or helplessly sonia do not oppose Modi's candidature so that if modi becomes PM he should not scratch congress dirty back or cover up their corruption
