    How many summons did Kejriwal ignore? Nine summons. The arrest was too late.

    • His party passed a bill to change the tariff on liquor sales, a multibillion dollar industry. • The bill was supposed to increase state revenue, but stagnated despite licenses granted to new sellers. • Rumors suggest his party used the money for campaigning in a different region. • The CBI detained two of his senior leaders to appease suspicions. • The arrested man avoided questioning and failed to answer eight summonses. • He filed an appeal in the Supreme Court but withdrew within a day . • His party members called up rallies on streets creating havoc , not willing to go on legal route.

    Modi Rival 😂😂😂 Kejriwal is a small Leader . Modi is a Prime Minister … there is a big time difference
  • I don't think so AP have any idea about what is protest in India😂😂😂😂😂. Dear AP media if 50-60 people came on street it doesn't consider protest in India. Don't forget India is a country with population of 1.4 billion, only 50-60 people on street. Trust me here people in India don't consider him modi rival😂😂😂😂😂.
  • Those police uniforms are crazy (blue floral pattern). Is that supposed to be camouflage, or just to give a soothing vibe?
  • @F-35C.
    Is it news channel? Or a PR agency ??
  • There is not just christo-fascism. We now also have Islamo-fascism, judeo-fascism (<-hyper-rionically), and even hindi-fascism; witch is the one I am personally most surprised by as typically it's monotheists who are so petty about what other people believe. Note: monolateralism is not bigotry. People have a right to believe what they choose to believe, as long as those beliefs do not manifest as physical harm to others.
