Hitting back at Arvind Kejriwal over his “shameful” attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the BJP on Wednesday asked the chief minister to not blame Mr Modi for his failures and instead act against his party leaders “involved” in various crimes.

“Arvind Kejriwal’s comments are shameful. We condemn them. He used to harp on morals and spoke against corruption but has been unmasked. He now stands for protecting his corrupt colleagues, many of whom are involved in various crimes, including trying to cause riots to grab power.

“He should know that democracy is governed by the rule of law and if anybody violates them, the law will act,” BJP national secretary Shrikant Sharma said.

He wondered if Mr Modi was behind the charges, including having forged degrees and domestic violence against wife, against AAP MLAs and said Mr Kejriwal’s comments showed paranoia driven by his failures.

Attacking Mr Kejriwal for claiming that Modi was frustrated, BJP spokesperson G.V.L. Narasimha Rao said, “He is frustrated not the Prime Minister. He is frustrated by his own incompetence in governing Delhi and lack of result on ground. He is frustrated by criminal actions of his own party MLAs.
