Arvind Kejriwal Accusations Bring Amit Shah, CS Channi On The Same Page

Arvind Kejriwal said he sees the bonhomie between the two political opponents as little more than a "comedy".

Two days before Punjab votes, two of its players - Congress's Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah of the BJP - have found themselves exchanging letters about a third - Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of the Aam Aadmi Party.

Responding to an appeal by Mr Channi based on allegations of Arvind Kejriwal being a separatist-sympathiser recently floated by a former AAP leader, poet Kumar Vishwas, Amit Shah has written back that the charges will be investigated, "seriously".

The AAP chief, however, has said he sees the bonhomie between the two political opponents as little more than a "comedy".

"I have learnt the central government called up Mr Channi to write the letter last evening and demand an investigation. Over the next two days, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) will register an FIR against me," Arvind Kejriwal said.
