Arvind Kejriwal's Message and Treatment in Jail Sparks Controversy

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal is at the center of controversy as his message to the people from Tihar jail, emphasizing his innocence in a money laundering case, is highlighted by AAP leader Sanjay Singh. Singh accuses the BJP of malicious intent, suggesting that Kejriwal is being wrongly treated akin to a terrorist in jail, citing restrictions even in his interactions with Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.

Singh's claim is met with a response from prison authorities, emphasizing that all inmates, including Kejriwal, receive the same basic rights and treatment within the confines of the jail. Despite allegations of preferential treatment for other prisoners, the authorities assert that there is no distinction made based on the severity of the charges or the inmate's status.

Furthermore, the political landscape is heated as AAP leaders continue to point fingers at the BJP, alleging corruption and demanding investigations into various scandals. The BJP retaliates by suggesting that Kejriwal's current predicament is due to corruption and money laundering charges, dismissing AAP's claims and asserting that Kejriwal has lost the public's sympathy. Kejriwal remains in judicial custody until April 23, facing legal troubles related to money laundering linked to his government's excise policy.
