As Delhi government minister Atishi questioned the arrest of a chief minister and expressed concern about his safety as he has ‘Z plus’ security, he hit back, saying it shows their sense of entitlement.She is saying how a CM can be arrested as he is not a common man, Patra said, noting that Kejriwal once named the likes of Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Lalu Prasad Yadav as corrupt and would ask when people will start going to the jail.The AAP leader then claimed he has entered politics to cleanse it but began living in a palace and moving around in a security cover, he said.”It is high time that people who are embroiled in corruption are arrested,” Patra asserted.Patra also played a statement of Congress leader Ajay Maken in which the he had lashed out at Kejriwal for the alleged excise scam and accused him of using Rs 100 crore collected from it to harm the Congress in the Goa assembly polls in 2022.Even the Supreme Court has spoken about a money trail of over Rs 338 crore while denying bail to AAP leader Manish Sisodia in the same case, he said.Following Kejriwal’s arrest Thursday evening, the AAP had given a nationwide call for protest against the BJP. BJP leaders have called the protest a drama and “celebration of corruption”.
