"Arvind Kejriwal Now Stuck In Quickstand Of Corruption": Minister

Union Minister Anurag Thakur on Thursday hit out at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal saying the person who had raised this voice against graft was now stuck in the "quicksand of corruption".

Mr Thakur's remarks came after Mr Kejriwal was asked by a Delhi court to appear before it on February 17 on a complaint filed by the Enforcement Directorate for skipping summons in an excise policy-linked case.

"How long will Kejriwal escape serious allegations of corruption? Now is the time that he appears before the court," Mr Thakur said.
