The BJP is making an attempt to interrupt him out of ‘malice and vendetta’ however he’ll emerge stronger from all of this, Singh stated.
“My names is Arvind Kejriwal and I am not a terrorist” is the Delhi chief minister’s message for the countrymen from Tihar jail, AAP chief Sanjay Singh stated Tuesday, slamming the BJP for the therapy being meted out to him in custody.
The BJP is making an attempt to interrupt him out of ‘malice and vendetta’ however he’ll emerge stronger from all of this, Singh stated.
Addressing a press convention right here, Singh alleged {that a} “notorious criminal” lodged in Tihar jail was allowed to fulfill his lawyer and spouse within the barrack, whereas Kejriwal needed to meet Punjab Chief Minster Bhagwant Mann throughout a glass display screen.
Hurt by the therapy being given to him, Kejriwal has despatched a message to the countrymen: “My name is Arvind Kejriwal and I am not a terrorist”, Singh stated.
The Delhi chief minister’s assertion borrows from Shahrukh Khan-starrer ‘My Name is Khan’ in 2010 by which the actor famously says “My Name is Khan and I am not a terrorist”.
Singh stated, “Kejriwal was being treated like a terrorist and he was allowed to meet Punjab Chief Minster Bhagwant Mann across a glass screen.” Singh, who walked out of the jail not too long ago after spending six months in a cash laundering case, alleged, “In jail number 2 of Tihar, a notorious criminal meets his lawyer and wife inside the barrack. Meetings of other inmates are also held in the office of the jail.” He didn’t take any names although.
Director General (prisons) Sanjay Baniwal on Monday stated no distinction is made within the therapy meted out to the inmates and it’s ensured they get the identical primary rights.
Mann met Kejriwal in jail on Monday and alleged that he was not getting the facilities even a hardcore felony is allowed in Tihar.
Responding to this, Baniwal stated, “There is no distinction between a hardcore or a normal criminal. In the jail manual, there is no distinction between the inmates. Every inmate has basic rights and it is my duty to ensure that. These are being ensured to everyone.” Nobody is accorded particular therapy and there’s no such provision, he stated.
