New Delhi, March 2 -- Former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday launched a sharp attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party-led central government at his first rally after being discharged by court in the excise policycase. At a rally at Jantar Mantar, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor, referring to the March 27 verdict said that the court had upheld that he is "kattar imaandaar" (staunchly honest) despite repeated corruption charges by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. On Friday, the Rouse Avenue Court cleared all the accused, including Kejriwal and former deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia of wrongdoing in the formulation and implementation of the now-repealed 2021-22 Delhi excise policy. The court held that the CBI's theory of an overarching conspiracy was not borne out by the material on record. Calling the 600-page judgment "historic", Kejriwal said it was a blow to attempts by PM Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah to dismantle the AAP. "The judge has made it clear that there is no evidence and the entire case is fake," he said, alleging that Modi and Shah personally monitored the case to ensure AAP leaders were not released. "From this place where people once raised their voice and the Congress was wiped out across the country, this day at Jantar Mantar is historic. That day was April 4, 2011. From today the countdown for BJP has begun," he said. He emphasised that, "In ten years as Chief Minister, countless inquiries were conducted. Not a single new paisa of corruption was found," he said. "I used to sign countless files while I was chief minister. Even if one vendor says that I ever sought money, I will quit politics." Calling his arrest a message against honest politics, he said youth who joined politics with hope were discouraged. Reacting to Kejriwal's allegations, Delhi BJP President Virendra Sachdeva said that the problem with Kejriwal and the Aam Aadmi Party is that the moment they get a little political space, they begin making political statements blaming the BJP for issues ranging from Delhi to Punjab, Gujarat, Goa, and even Israel and America. "Arvind Kejriwal's 11-year tenure was marked by zero development, corruption, scams, and the Sheesh Mahal, whereas the BJP government's one year has been characterised by change and development. With nearly Rs.1 lakh crore worth of new schemes, new STPs, a new sewer master plan, initial steps toward cleaning the Yamuna, improved roads, new buses, and citizen-oriented house tax and Jal Board schemes, significant progress has been made," Sachdeva said....
