Kejriwal announces fresh stir against Khurshid from Farrukhabad

Bangalore: Arvind Kejriwal and a group of disabled people on called off their four-day-old protest in Delhi against Salman Khurshid and announced a fresh campaign against him in his Uttar Pradesh constituency Farrukhabad. Kejriwal also alleged that there was a quid pro quo between the Congress, which is supporting Khurshid, and SP chief Mulayam Singh Yadav who is facing a disproportionate assets case in the Supreme Court.

Announcing the end of his protest at Parliament Street, Kejriwal claimed that they have not received a response from Prime Minister's Office for an appointment and now they are shifting their battle to Farrukhabad.

"Now the volunteers will go to Farrukhabad. We are getting more documents against Khurshid. Public will make a disabled person fight against him in the next elections and defeat him," he said.

Claiming that Congress and other parties like BJP and SP have been "exposed" in the fight against corruption, he also targeted Manmohan Singh.

"He too has been exposed. He does not speak. Congress and BJP are hand in glove. In a couple of days, (BJP chief Nitin) Gadkari will be exposed," he said.

He said if the country has Right to Reject as Anna Hazare demands, then these people will not get elected.

"During this Dussehra festival, we should not burn the effigies of mythical Ravan (and Meghdhoot and Kumbhakarna).

Let us not burn their effigies. Let us select three people who are Ravans of the present," he said.
