Arvind Kejriwal trying to divide people, says Patiala ex-MP Dr Dharamvira Gandhi Feb 18th 2022, 00:32 Patiala, February 17 Patiala ex-MP Dr Dharamvira Gandhi today accused AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal of playing polarisation politics and demanded that the EC send him a notice and seek clarification on his statement. In a statement, he said Kejriwal had said a Hindu businessman had come to meet him in Ludhiana and claimed Hindus felt unsafe in Punjab. "This is a completely fake and concocted story. It is a bid to divide people on religious lines despite the fact that Hindu-Sikh relations have always remained cordial, even during the 1980s." Lashing out at the Delhi Chief Minister, Gandhi said Kejriwal was trying to dismember Punjabi culture's trait of brotherhood and togetherness. He said, "He (Kejriwal) holds a constitutional post as Delhi CM. But he has attempted to play the Hindu card much like he played the Sikh card in the 2017 Assembly polls. These are bids to divide the people. There is no threat to any community in the state. All have lived here in peace and harmony. The election commission should issue him a notice and demand a clarification." On a question on rendering support to a particular political party, Gandhi said, "I do not support any political party. I am only talking about the qualities of various individuals. People should cast their vote as per their understanding and the candidate's stature. They should not vote for anyone who jumps parties." Lodge FIR Against AAP supremo: SSM Chandigarh: The SSM has moved a plaint to the CEO against Arvind Kejriwal for his alleged communal and divisive statement made at a press meet in Ludhiana. It has asked the EC to bar him from holding any poll events and requested an FIR under relevant sections of the IPC and Representation of the People Act.
