Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Thursday alleged that the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) conspired to kill Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal. He also claimed that Delhi BJP leader Manoj Tiwari was also involved. He suspected that the conspiracy was hatched in fear of losing the upcoming Gujarat Assembly elections and Delhi MCD polls.
LG VK Saxena later took cognizance of the claim and urged the Delhi Police to look into it, sources said. “Please ensure that such eventuality, orchestrated or other wise, do not happen, to the farthest possible extent,” he asked the Police Commissioner.
“AAP is not afraid of their petty politics, now the public will answer for their hooliganism,” Sisodia wrote on Twitter.
गुजरात व MCD चुनाव मे हार के डर से बौखलाई BJP @ArvindKejriwal की हत्या की साजिश रच रही हैइनके सांसद मनोज तिवारी खुलेआम अपने गुंडो को अरविंद जी पर हमला करने के लिए कह रहे है और इसकी पूरी प्लानिंग कर ली है
AAP इनकी टुच्ची राजनीति से नही डरती,इनके गुंडागर्दी का जबाव अब जनता देगी

Sisodia’s remarks came in response to Tiwari’s tweets earlier in the day, in which he had expressed concern over Kejriwal’s security, while highlighting recent allegations of corruption and “selling of tickets” for the MCD polls.
अरविंद केजरीवाल जी की सुरक्षा को लेकर मैं चिंतित हुँ,क्योंकि लगातार भ्रष्टाचार,टिकिट बिक्री व जेल में बलात्कारी से दोस्ती व मसाज प्रकरण को लेकर AAP कार्यकर्ता व जनता ग़ुस्से में हैं।इनके MLA पिटे भी हैं। इसलिए दिल्ली के सीएम के साथ ऐसा ना हो.. सजा न्यायालय ही दे 🙏— Manoj Tiwari 🇮🇳 (@ManojTiwariMP) November 24, 2022
Earlier on Wednesday, Sisodia had attacked BJP saying the party had “failed” to perform the primary responsibility of maintaining cleanliness during its 15-year tenure in the civic body and that people of Delhi would give a “befitting response” in the upcoming polls.
The AAP has taken up the issue of garbage management in Delhi in a bid to wrest power from the three-term winner BJP in the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) elections.
