AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal launched a scathing attack on Union Home Minister Amit Shah, demanding his resignation over the alleged “chaotic” law-and-order situation in Delhi. Kejriwal accused the BJP-led Centre of failing to ensure public safety, citing the recent fatal stabbing of a youth in Pitampura as evidence of deteriorating security.
“Two youths were attacked by seven to eight local boys. Manish was stabbed multiple times and tragically died because he couldn’t reach the hospital in time. Himanshu, the other victim, survived, but police haven’t even recorded his statement,” Kejriwal said after meeting the deceased’s family.
The Delhi Chief Minister criticized the Delhi Police, alleging threats against the victims instead of action against the perpetrators. “If Amit Shah is too busy with political tours to address Delhi’s law and order, he should step down,” Kejriwal declared.
AAP to “Force” Action Amid Rising Crimes
Kejriwal alleged that crimes like drug abuse and chain snatching have become rampant across the city, instilling fear among residents. “People are afraid to step out of their homes. AAP will unite Delhiites and force the BJP-led Centre to take action to ensure public safety,” he stated.
Kejriwal also claimed he had been receiving numerous appeals from residents across the city to visit their areas and address safety concerns. “I will personally visit these places and raise their issues,” he said.
BJP Hits Back: “Diversion Tactics”
The BJP dismissed Kejriwal’s accusations, alleging that his remarks were an attempt to deflect attention from the corruption scandals and administrative failures plaguing the AAP government in Delhi.
“Instead of creating unnecessary fear about law and order, Kejriwal should introspect on AAP’s governance failures over the past decade,” a BJP spokesperson said.
With rising crime rates and political blame games escalating, Delhi’s residents remain caught in the crossfire of this heated political tussle.
