Does Kejriwal believe in dictatorship, asks Digvijay

Last updated on: February 27, 2012 14:11 IST
Condemning Arvind Kejariwal's statement on Parliament and members of Parliament, Congress General Secretary Digvijay Singh on Monday said that the Team Anna member must explain in which type of system he believes.

"I condemn Kejariwal's comment on the Parliament. He must tell that if Parliament is bad, parliamentary democracy is bad then in which type of system he believes -- dictatorship or single party rule," Digvijay told reporters in Lucknow. He asked Kejriwal to speak the truth about himself and how many times he had violated the orders of the government.

Alleging that the BJP's line was the line of Team Anna, he said, "They never speak against the BJP and Congress is always their target."

The Congress leader claimed that they were piqued with the fact that despite their opposition Congress was getting the support of the people. "They are campaigning on the issue of Right To Reject. But it must be told that till the fifth phase of polling percentage of such people was not even .001 per cent," he said.

In reply to a question, Digvijay alleged that Ramdev and Team Anna were two sides of the same coin. "They all are A, B and C teams of the RSS. I have always held that the RSS is an organisation which does not believe in democratic values. Those who do not believe in democratic values are guided by this organisation." He said the government must investigate into foreign funding of all such organisations, who have been agitating on the issues concerned to development and cause government instability.

The Congress leader said that the party would either get majority or emerge as the single largest party in UP polls.
