'Absurdity' has no limits as far as Delhi Chief Minister Arvind
Kejriwal is concerned. Just to avoid his appearance before the Enforcement
Directorate, he is saying that there was no fault of his and yet why the ED has
been sending notice after notice to him. Even a layperson cannot avoid
appearing before the court or any authority on the grounds of the notice being
sent wrong. Therefore, he cannot judge his case. Everybody knows that if any
notice has been received by him/her from the court or any authority, it is for
him/her to prove that he/she was not at fault. Nobody can prejudge himself/
herself. The summoned person has to prove innocence, but he/she cannot
refuse to appear in the court or before the authority. But Kejriwal is an
altogether different person, and he has already claimed himself to be ‘not
guilty’ even without appearing before the ED.
When Anna Hazare’s movement was at its peak at Jantar Mantar
of New Delhi, I also used to go there as it was very near to my office in
Connaught Place. Arvind Kejriwal used to make tall claims from the podium, most
of them were laughable, to make Bharat a corruption-free country in a few
months, if he was given the chance. People fed up with explosive corruption,
provided him the opportunity to be at the helm of affairs. Strangely, he took
the support of the same Congress Party, against which he had launched his
agitation, to form his government for the first term because his party -AAP-
had obtained a few seats less than what was needed to form the government. Such
immoral, unethical compromises in politics are very common but Kejriwal had
promised for a new discourse in politics and the people lapped him for it.
His understanding of the Constitution is hilarious, to say the
least. When Sushil Kumar Shinde was the Home Minister of India, he threatened
to get him arrested as he happened to be the elected Chief Minister of the
Union Territory of Delhi. Sushil Kumar Shinde had then rightly laughed at him
in derision over his insanity.
Kejriwal had many times openly accused Lalu Prasad Yadav of being
a corrupt man. This was the reason that he even avoided talking to him on the
stage during the swearing-in ceremony of Nitish Kumar at the time of his first
alliance government with Lalu Prasad Yadav. But he has no such qualms nowadays
as he has been regularly sharing a dais with him and is now an active partner
in allying with disparate groups of people and parties across India. This
shows Arvind Kejriwal is no different from others. He has shown his true
colours.
