Kejriwal is a Congress agent: BJP
Miffed at activist Arvind Kejriwal stealing the show at a Bharatiya Janata Party programme on Monday, the opposition party on Tuesday alleged that he is levelling charges against parties and individuals as a part of his strategy to serve his political ambitions.
BJP general secretary Vijay Goel, who had welcomed Kejriwal to the stage at a party protest programme on Monday, did not mince words to express his anger against the social activist's behaviour.
Kejriwal had spoken against BJP from the dais and asked what the Opposition had done to check the "wrongdoings" of the Sheila Dikshit-led Congress government in Delhi.

'He thinks he is leading the movement'
"BJP has always opposed the hike in power bills. We have held demonstrations in all parts of Delhi. Who is Kejriwal to ask us what we have done in the last three years? He has entered the protests just three days ago and restored two power connections. He thinks he is leading the movement," Goel fumed.
The BJP leader alleged that Kejriwal wass a "Congress agent" and his criticism of the opposition party is aimed at weakening the agitation against the "unjustified" hike in the power bills of the people.

'He is attacking political parties'
When it was pointed out that Kejriwal had "exposed" Congress chief Sonia Gandhi's son-in-law Robert Vadra's business relations with realty major DLF and hence could not be acting at the behest of the Congress, Goel only repeated his charges.
"Yes, he is attacking political parties and individuals as he is starting a political party," Goel said in reply to a question.
He demanded a public apology from Kejriwal for attacking BJP at the public meeting.
