Kejriwal's Wife Accuses BJP of Denying Insulin, Calls Arrest Political Vendetta

## Sunita Kejriwal Accuses BJP of Denying Insulin to Jailed Arvind Kejriwal

Sunita Kejriwal, wife of jailed Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, has accused the BJP-led central government of denying insulin to her husband. She claims that the government is trying to kill him.

"They want to kill my husband Arvind Kejriwal. His food is under camera observation; he is denied insulin. My husband is a sugar patient who has been on insulin for 12 years; he needs 50 units of insulin daily," Sunita said at the Ulgulan Nyay Rally in Ranchi.

She claims that her husband was jailed for working for the people and no charges could be proved against him.

"We will fight against dictatorship and win. The gates of jail will break and Arvind Kejriwal and Hemant Soren will come out," she said.

## Hemant Soren's Message from Jail

Former Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren, also in jail, sent a message that was read out by his wife Kalpana at the rally. He said that the BJP was trying to topple governments in opposition-ruled states but democracy cannot be allowed to fail.

"Central agencies such as the ED and CBI are being misused to suppress the opposition's voice but BJP and such forces will be driven out from Jharkhand," the message read.

Kalpana Soren urged the people to show the "exit doors" to the BJP, claiming that if the party wins the ongoing elections it would be a "big threat" to tribals.

## Kejriwal and Soren Arrested Before Elections

Kalpana Soren alleged that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and her husband Hemant Soren were jailed just before the elections by forces that were hatching conspiracies against their governments.

Kejriwal was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) on March 21 in a money laundering case linked to the now-scrapped Delhi excise policy. He is in ED custody till April 1.

Hemant Soren was arrested by the ED on January 31 in connection with a money laundering case linked to an alleged land fraud, immediately after his resignation as the chief minister.
