Now Delhi CM is back to Tihar, and harassment for Kejriwal continues.
Delhi minister Atishi has accused the BJP of harassing chief minister Arvind Kejriwal, who is back in Tihar jail after his interim bail ended.
“Arvind Kejriwal has been arrested by the BJP in a fake case. Yesterday, Arvind Kejriwal surrendered and went to Tihar Jail. But the BJP-ruled central government has not found peace. The BJP is leaving no stone unturned to harass Arvind Kejriwal. He has been kept in a cell where even a cooler has not been provided,” the minister said at a briefing.
“At a time when the temperature in Delhi is reaching 48 degrees C, 50 degrees C, coolers are provided to notorious criminals in Tihar Jail but Delhi's popular CM Arvind Kejriwal has not been given a cooler in this scorching heat. I want to ask this to the BJP. I want to ask their LG sahab how low will you stoop?” she added.
A senior Tihar jail official responded to Atishi's allegations, saying,
"Coolers are given to those inmates, who are unwell and the court orders the authorities to do so," as reported by HindustanTimes.
Atishi also alleged that during his medical examination on Sunday, the Aam Aadmi Party convenor's weight was measured on three machines that showed different readings.
