Kejriwal says CEC indulging in 'dirty politics' amid EC nudge
The New Indian Express Tiruchy
|January 31, 2025
WITH the Election Commission (EC) expressing dissatisfaction with the response of Arvind Kejriwal to its notice over his claim that the Haryana government was "mixing poison" in Yamuna river, the AAP supremo on Thursday accused Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar of getting indulged in "dirty politics" and alleged that he was seeking a post-retirement job.
The EC said that Kejriwal's statement about the poisoning of Yamuna had prima facie been found to "promote disharmony and enmity between groups", potentially leading to public disorder and unrest.
The poll panel sought further clarification on several points, seeking a response by 11 am on January 31, 2025, failing which action would be initiated.
At a press meet, Kejriwal threw down a challenge at the poll panel saying he would send three bottles of Yamuna water to Kumar and other commissioners to drink the "high-ammonia" water. He alleged the CEC of acting in favour of the BJP by turning a blind eye to malpractice.
