Rajnath Singh on Arvind Kejriwal’s resignation: If he had any morality…

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, in an interview with India Today TV, reacted to Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s resignation announcement and said that the latter would ultimately have to face the “court of the people” in the upcoming elections.
“If Kejriwal had any sense of morality, he would have resigned the day allegations were raised, and he was jailed,” Singh said. He expressed confidence that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) would form the next government in the Delhi Assembly elections.
Kejriwal, who was granted bail in the liquor policy case last week, sent shockwaves through Delhi’s political circles after announcing on September 15 that he would resign in two days.
Turning to the national front, the Defence Minister emphasised India’s growing global stature. He asserted, “India’s image has strengthened worldwide, and no one can shake the confidence of our nation on the global stage.”
Singh highlighted several achievements of the Narendra Modi government in its first 100 days, including progress in the Atmanirbhar Bharat initiative, the PM Awas Yojana, and innovations like the “Drone Didi” program.
The minister also accused Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi of damaging India’s reputation abroad. “While Rahul Gandhi continues to speak against India in foreign lands, the confidence of the Modi government will keep rising,” he said.
However, Singh added that if the Opposition presents good suggestions, the government would be open to accepting them.
He also praised the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) for its democratic structure. “The Modi government takes everyone along,” he said.
Singh expressed optimism about BJP’s electoral prospects in other states as well, predicting a BJP government in Jammu and Kashmir soon. He also projected a victory for the BJP in Haryana, stating, “We are going to form the government in Haryana for the third time, and we expect to win more seats than last time”.
