AAP's Raghav Chadha Plays On Deewar's Famous Dialogue In Swipe At BJP

Gujarat assembly election 2022: Raghav Chadha, campaigning for the Aam Aadmi Party, or AAP, in Gujarat, said the rival BJP in the centre is "scared" of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal

Aam Aadmi Party MP Raghav Chadha took a swipe at the BJP today using a famous dialogue from the 1975 movie Deewar over alleged misuse of central agencies to harass opposition leaders.

Mr Chadha, campaigning for the Aam Aadmi Party, or AAP, in Gujarat, said the rival BJP in the centre sends powerful investigative agencies after his party colleague and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal "because they are scared of him".

"The BJP makes fun of us. They say they have everything. The BJP says, 'We have ED, CBI, police, TV channels, newspapers, money, but what do you have (tumhare pas kya hai)?'" Mr Chadha said in Hindi at a rally.

"I'd like to tell them, we have Arvind Kejriwal (humare pas Arvind Kejriwal hai)," the AAP leader said. "He (Mr Kejriwal) has the blessings of Lord Krishna and the people of Gujarat," Mr Chadha said, drawing a loud applause.
