AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann held a public meeting in support of Gujarat Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Chaitar Vasava. Both the leaders launched sharp attacks on the BJP and said that Vasava and his wife have been arrested by the BJP government of Gujarat in a fake case. Mann and Kejriwal will also meet Chaitar Vasava in jail on Monday.
Addressing the public meeting, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann said that Chaitar Vasava has been put in jail by the BJP government for fighting for the tribals and poor people.But going to jail is not going to weaken his courage, rather he will come out stronger.
Mann said that it is not a new thing for governments to jail leaders who raise the voice of the people. This has been happening since the time of the freedom struggle. Whoever fights for the common people and raises voice against those who loot the people, has to go to jail.
Mann said that the BJP has done the same with our leaders in Delhi also. When Manish Sisodia reformed the government schools of Delhi the Modi government sent him to jail. In Delhi, more and more children were getting enrolled in government schools instead of going to private schools because the government schools of Delhi were becoming better than the private schools.
Similarly, former Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain rejuvenated government hospitals. Mohalla clinics were built for the common people. People started getting all kinds of health facilities for free. So they also put Satyendra Jain in jail.
These people also put our Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh in jail for speaking against the Adani scam in Parliament. Now they know that wherever Arvind Kejriwal goes in the country, the BJP gets wiped out. Therefore, now they are conspiring to send him to jail also.
Mann said that if the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi think that they will be able to scare us by keeping us in jail, then they are wrong. Whatever they do, Arvind Kejriwal and the Aam Aadmi Party leaders are not afraid of them.
